As the women meet they catch right hands and allemande right once around. The men drop out after crossing the set, and partners swing as the women come around. It flows easily and feels good. I often do a floor demo, both because it's unfamiliar and because it's pretty cool to watch. Since the promenade only lasts for a beat or two I think the easiest hold is for neighbors to join left hands, with the man's right arm briefly behind the woman's back.</span><br><div><br></div><div><font color="#000000" face="sans-serif"><span style="font-size:15px">Dances that include that figure are </span></font></div><div><font color="#000000" face="sans-serif"><span style="font-size:15px">Puttin' Cheese on the Ritz by Ron Buchanan</span></font></div><div><font color="#000000" face="sans-serif"><span style="font-size:15px">Glenside Promenade by Ron Buchanan</span></font></div><div><font color="#000000" face="sans-serif"><span style="font-size:15px">Gaye's Groove by Rick Mohr</span></font></div><div><font color="#000000" face="sans-serif"><span style="font-size:15px">Cup of Joe by Rick Mohr</span></font></div><div><font color="#000000" face="sans-serif"><span style="font-size:15px">Better Late than Never by Steve Z-A</span></font></div><div><font color="#000000" face="sans-serif"><span style="font-size:15px">Not a Trip to Vegas by Chris Page</span></font></div><div><font color="#000000" face="sans-serif"><span style="font-size:15px"><br></span></font></div><div><font color="#000000" face="sans-serif"><span style="font-size:15px">Rick Mohr is also credited with varying this dance to include a Revolving Door.
