Re: [Callers] Dances for 3s

Another 3-person dance is one I call Innies and Outie Arches. I don't know its real name. Katy Tarter German called it at a family dance years ago, and I've used it successfully a few times since, especially at family dances. This dance requires the band being willing to stop the music at random moments in the B2, though. I suppose you could verbally say "stop" without stopping the music if the band was adverse to it. Joy Greenwolfe Durham, NC Innie and Outtie Arches Make lines of three facing CCW around the circle like spokes on a wheel. Note your position: If you are between two people in the middle you are an innie. If you are on the outside of the line you are an outtie. Hold hands in lines to start. A1 Promenade in lines of three (counter clockwise). (16) A2 Circle of three, circle L (8) Circle of three, circle R (8) B1 Innies swing the one who (is) _____ (8) (tallest, curliest hair, youngest, who can stick their stomach out the farthest, who can jump the highest, etc… ) (the pretty one... the prettier one) Innies swing the other one! (8) B2 Outties make an arch and all the innies run through all the arches around the circle until the music stops. (16) Outties capture the closest innie to make a new line. (Decide who’s going to be the new innie.) On Jan 30, 2012, at 1:55 PM, Rickey Holt wrote:
