I do this with the basic circle dance, let the band know what you are going to do though and be clear when you break the ring to lead the spiral that all others hold hands.  Kids esp love this.  I do a weave though arched hands and loop around several times before I take it to the very center and then loop back out into that big circle again. you can end the dance there or resume your original dance.

Greeting callers!
I am calling a friend's wedding this weekend and she requested "the spiral dance," a circle dance where at some point one person leads everyone into a spiral (or, optionally, anywhere around the hall?). I think I've danced it before, but I'm having a hard time finding a name or notes on how to call it. Can anyone share a version with me?
Thanks in advance,
