<div dir="ltr"><div>Linda,</div><div dir="ltr">Here is a very SIMPLE dance that I almost always use as the first dance with K-3 children. I often use CL 8, CR 8, ... instead of CL 16, but often it takes a while to get youngsters moving so CL 16 is fine. I learned this dance from Cal Campbell, and is the best at getting dancers dancing to the phrase.</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">Cat's Meow<br><div><a target="_blank" class="gmail-style-scope gmail-ytcp-video-metadata-info" href="https://youtu.be/EmwDsd_yf10" style="text-decoration:none;font-family:Roboto,Noto,sans-serif;font-size:15px;white-space:nowrap">https://youtu.be/EmwDsd_yf10 </a><br></div><div><br></div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sat, Aug 17, 2019 at 8:57 PM Rich Sbardella <<a href="mailto:richsbardella@gmail.com">richsbardella@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-style:solid;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div>Linda,</div>Chimes of Dunkirk is a great dance for tying the music to the dance.<div>Also Heel & Toe Polka.</div><div>Is there a dance that changes from 2/4 or 4/4 to 6/8?
