John's comment reminds me that a while back, somebody posted (a link
to?) a list of equivalent moves, things you could substitute for each
other. I've hunted for it recently but apparently haven't come up with
the right combination of search terms, and haven't been able to find it
in the Shared Weight Archives either. Very handy for those times when
you've just got way too many allemande L 1-1/2s in the program.
Anybody know where that list might be?

Hi Rich, If you have a great dance that you want to call but it has
a circle, and you have called too many circles, then why not just
rechoreograph it to remove the circle?
For example you can replace Neighbour Swing; Circle Left 3/4;
Partner Swing with Neighbour Swing; Balance the Ring; Ladies Cross
Over (by the right shoulder); Partner Swing or with Neighbour Swing;
Ladies Balance F/B with Right Hand; Ladies Pull by; Partner Swing
with no effect on the rest of the dance.
Both versions send the lady smoothly across the set, flowing into
her partner's arms with the right momentum. The second version can
be especially satisfying if the ladies use just enough tension to
catapult each other into their partner's arms.
Happy dancing, John
