<div dir="ltr">Hi, Maia,<div><br></div><div>At the risk of this not being exactly what you're looking for in a dance, I'll share Julie's Gypsies.</div><div><br></div><div>The ladies dance the path of a full hey path across the A1 and A2 phrases. I even describe it to the ladies as tracing the path of a hey. However, the gents stay on their side. </div><div><br></div><div>I've had lots of complements and no mentions of concern about the figure crossing the phrases. Perhaps it's different enough from a hey as it's called and taught more at the component figure level as opposed to a single figure.</div><div><br></div><div>In any case, wanted to share in case you found it helpful.</div><div><br></div><div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><b>4.
