I am tasked with calling a Colonial Dance with mostly novices. Most of the dances I have are Triple Minors and contain Rights and Lefts. I am converting the dances to Duple Minors in most cases, or perhaps to a Triplet if need be.

I have two questions.

Do you have a favorite replacement for the 16 count Rights and Lefts that will leave dancers facing their new neighbors?

Do you have any Regency period or colonial flavored dances for a group of novice dancers?

Thanks!
