Such a great event!  The California contingent had a super time there 
this year.

[Callers] Does this dance exist already?

2018-09-30 Thread Winston, Alan P. via Callers 
I don't recall seeing the dip-and-dive-across-the-set figure before 
(choreographically equivalent to right and through), came up with this, 
called it tonight and people seemed to have fun.  I don't think it 
registers as too  gimmicky for hot contra dancers because they get the 
twirls to face back in, and it goes well pretty early in the evening


DIPPING DOTS
Improper contra
Bouncy, jolly (Quebecois, polka?), or smooth and driving.
Alan Winston, 9/27/2018


A1: Neighbor balance and swing, face across

A2: Dip and dive across the set (couple containing #1gent arches first)
     1-2: Cross over
     3-4: All California twirl
     5-6: Other couple arches, cross back
     7-8: All California twirl, let go.

B1: Gents/Larks pass right shoulder to partner
     Partners right shoulder round and swing on the ladies/ravens side

B2: Cl 3/4 (to progressed crossed over places)
     Balance the ring
     California Twirl
