[Callers] Barn dances for teens

I call a small monthly dance for teenagers, a blast and interesting in many
ways.

We always do a few barn dances -- great fun, and a nice break from worrying
about progressing the wrong way and ending swings on the wrong side. But
the kids are smart and game, so most of the family dances in my box are too
easy.

Here are some favorites. Have other good ones to add?

Bottoms Up - https://www.barndances.org.uk/detail.php?Title=Bottoms_Up
Country Bumpkin -

Falling Masonry - http://www.ceilidhcalling.co.uk/danceviewpage.php?id=33
Firehose Reel
Intersection Reel
Roll the Arches
Sashay the Donut
Waves of Tory

Dances that can include everybody are best (longways, circles) rather than
fixed-size sets (squares, triplets) where some people have to sit out.

Thanks!

Rick
