[Callers] What dance is this?

[Bill Olson via Callers]

Ummm... from David's web page:


Cherokee Shuffle

Improper



A1 (facing up and down set) w/Ns, F & B; w/N, dos-a-dos; form circle

A2 Bal. Circle; W/N, swing, end progressed

B1  Gs LH turn 1/2; W/P, bal. & swing (12 beats)

B2 Circle L 3/4; Circle Bal. 2x; W/P, California Twirl to swap places, face new Ns



This is the 36 bar version to match the tune. I seem to remember the dance originally was Cir L x1, N DSD in A1 and in B1 the men turned half way to a wave across for the balance.

Note how similar this dance is to David Kaynor's Cherokee Shuffle.
