Hi Bill,
Just get them to line up in contra lines and say, "Hands six
from the top; hold hands in a circle of six; spread out and find some space
then make two lines of three facing three."
Then you just have to sort out any odd couples at the bottom.
Happy dancing,
John

Subject: Re: [Callers] Contra Corners Dance
I agree about not wanting people coming from both sides. For just plain
teaching the contra corners figure, I like Chorus Jig done as a triplet..
(B2 = actives swing to end of set 3's move up). I have done this dance with
total beginner groups with no problem. The down side of doing a triplet, I
guess, is the "herding cats" aspect of setting up many short sets..
Bill
