[Callers] Re: Right hand high and left hand low figure

Sounds to me like a Dixie Twirl. (I have this in notes for Robert Cromartie's "Dixie Gal".) * Dixie Twirl: Without anyone releasing hands, the left-most pair, led by the end dancer, go under an arch made by the central pair to become the left-most pair in a line of four facing up. Simultaneously, the right-most pair sweep across the set to become the right-most pair in the inverted line. -- Alan ________________________________________ From: Elizabeth Bloom Albert via Contra Callers <contracallers(a)lists.sharedweight.net> Sent: Monday, November 10, 2025 8:08 AM To: Shared Weight callers list Subject: [Callers] Right hand high and left hand low figure BEWARE: This email originated outside of our organization. DO NOT CLICK links or attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. Dear callers and fellow dance writers, I am writing a new contra dance and I have a question: Has there ever been an instance where, during a “Right hand high and left hand low,” everybody in a line of FOUR snakes under the raised arms (i.e., no one turns alone) in order to come back up the hall? Caller’s Box explains the move as “A way for a line of three to face the other direction and swap ends without dropping hands.” I want it to be a line of four. Will that work? Thank you! -- Elizabeth Bloom Albert
