I always have a programs worth it very easy dances in a bundle. If I must, I will use
those. But... As you get more experienced, your ability to teach new dancers so they can
handle at least your back up program will increase. You will help yourself by thinking of
best ways to teach each move, succinctly, by plotting each dance so you can give road
marks like who you are standing with, looking at etc., and assessing the true difficulty
of a dance. Even a dance with all glossary moves can bewilder a new dancer because they
have no dance sense yet, no instinct about which way to turn. Good luck as you continue
learning! There's always another level of better to achieve.

Good morning,
My name is Danielle, and I am a new caller in New Mexico. I just called my
first full evening last night. We ended up having a rather large group of
beginners, so much so that I could use neither my planned program nor even
my backup program that I thought would be appropriate for a mixed crowd. I
ended up programming on the fly, which didn't go as smoothly as I would
have liked.
I'd love to hear what other callers do in this situation, or how they are
able to avoid it with prep work beforehand.
Thanks!
Danielle
