Right! and why not introduce very early on "change of front," which allows 
moving ahead in the line of dance without senselessly walking forward/back? 
This way you introduce early on a useful technique/concept which can be used 
over and over in all sorts of situations. It also introduces many other 
concepts with it. I stay away from any patterns, especially those which are not 
really usable on the dance floor.
