For those interested, Cary Ravitz has a dance with the same key figure except that the men are in the middle instead of the women called Four on the Floor (1999). I am copying it here, in case people are interested in some variety.
Four on the Floor Cary Ravitz 1-1999 Becket, counter-clockwise A1 - Right and left through across (8). - On the left diagonal, only if there is someone there, ladies chain (8). A2 - Hands across star left 7/8 (3+1/2 places) so that men are in the middle (8). - Keep hands in the star and men take hands in a long wavy line in the middle. - Men balance right and left and ladies balance left and right (4). - Men slide right and ladies slide left with a Rory O'More spin (4). B1 - Men balance left and right and ladies balance right and left (4). - Men slide left and ladies slide right (4). - Hands across star left 7/8 (8). B2 - Look away from the star for your partner to balance and swing (16).
