Depending on the event I will often have dancers keep the same partner during La
Bastringue. I often use that as a first dance and call it from the floor while dancing.
I find the original swing too long and will call it with a Do si Do and swing for ONS.
Doing it that way I teach the dancers an additional move and prevent them from ending the
swing early and they can actually stay with the phrasing of the music.

Call it either way!
As with any circle really.

Um, what?! The La Bastringue I know (both IFD and contra) is a mixer (SF
area in case it's a regional thing).
