Just getting to my email now.
I have an ECD with a similar move - star into couples chase out, swap leads,
come back in; in my dance, they go around each other, so it's clearly a
poussette variation.
I tried calling it "dolphin poussette" but that really doesn't speak to people;

Hey all,
I've felt like most box circulate dances use the circulate as a buildup
into a swing with *someone*. Looking at
http://www.contra.dance/thecallersbox, there are only 12 results for dances
with a circulate that isn't followed by a swing and 9 of those results
don't include their choreograp
Well if you have ecd folks on the floor...
bottoms star right once around and ease out and pause! Gents will continue up

Do you specifically want folks in the middle of short line? Or would a long
line at the sides work as well?
Erik Hoffman's Missing Duck sets up a long lines Rory O'More with a partner
allemande. If folks over or under allemande that, then the other person is
facing in and starts the hey. It all re
Hi Alex and All:
This may or not be what you're asking for, but the following role-free contra
was written where any dancer can be at any position in the wave. I learned in
writing this that it was too difficult for me to include a neighbor swing, keep
it role-free, and have all stay with thei
Thank you all, for your thoughts and discussion, and I do like the name

As I'd envisioned it, the path on the floor is very much like a poussette,
but the dancers wouldn't be holding hands. It's almost like the tandem turn
in a dolphin hey; but with motion up and down the hall. I think
