I prefer circles to the right after chains, from both positions. Still, I'll echo those who question the circle right into swing, although my suggested solution is different:

Replace the neighbor swing with a neighbor two-hand turn counter clockwise twice around.

(I know you enjoy a good two-hand turn, Jerome ^_^)

Thanks for your comments.

Rich, I had considered a circle left, and chose the circle right for similar reasons as Joy as articulated. I do want to test this, particularly asking people dancing the ladies role about the flow and/or momentum shift they experience.

Joy, yes, I would certainly be sure to make it clear in teaching that it's the NEXT neighbor for the roll away. Thanks for your encouragement of a circle right, I'll let the list know how dancers respond.

Sorry if this has already been pointed out. 

The advantage of circling right before the Neighbor swing in this dance is that the Ladies lead in the circle in front of the person they will be swinging, which is always a smoother transition than the Gents leading a circle into a swing. 

The circle right also adds a distinctive flavor to the dance that might otherwise look a little generic. 

Another detail I noticed is that in the A1, it would be helpful for clarity’s sake to specify that the gents roll away their *new* Neighbor, not the one they just swung.

You could just as easily circle Left 1x in B2.

I question the flow of a circle R into a swing.  But I don't recognize the sequence.

I wonder if this sequence has already been written (and titled):

Improper contra
Jerome Grisanti (unless prior claim exists)

A1: Long lines go forward, roll away as you go back (women moving from left to right in front of their neighbors).
Men allemande left 1.5.

A2: Partner B & S.

B1: Right & Left Thru, Ladies chain.

B2: Circle RIGHT 1x, Neighbors swing.

Thanks,

Jerome
