Called this last Tuesday, to a mixed crowd. Good dance, the dancers liked it (once I started calling it correctly :-( ).
Might not even want to mention the short wavy line when teaching the pass-the-ocean, as it's not a balance point -- might want to emphasize the roundness and swing-through-i-ness of the allemandes. But that's a pet peeve of mine, as I prefer a nice round weighty half-allemande rather than a limp wish-you-weren't-here hand touch while brushing shoulders. But now let me tell you how I really feel about that... - Roger Hayes Madison WI On Fri, May 23, 2014 at 11:00 AM, <[email protected]> wrote: > ------------------------------ > > Message: 3 > Date: Fri, 23 May 2014 10:04:53 -0400 (EDT) > From: Donna Hunt <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [Callers] choreography > Message-ID: <[email protected]> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" > > > that is correct it's a pass the ocean + swing thru. > You don't actually stop in the wave. > > Pass the ocean; Gents cross to opposite side and Ladies take left and turn > 1/4 , > Swing through; all turn your neighbor by the right 1/2 and then the gents > pull by the left.
