Re: [Callers] Heys for new dancers

Long time listener, first-time caller. Bad puns aside, one of my favorite dances for a half-hey is: Pride of Charlottesville by Seth Tepfer http://www.dancerhapsody.com/Calling/Dances.html#PrideCville The dance has good flow without being dizzying. The dance is easy to call, simple for beginners, but not boring for the experienced set. As to the 3/8ths of a hey (WR, NL, Men R), just as the ladies are not across the set at the moment that they pass each other, the men are not across the set at the moment they pass each other. If the gentlemen continue all the way to the proper ending-point for the hey instead of shortcutting to their partner, all the music will be used up, the balance will be on-time and the day will be saved. --Ryan S. http://www.twirlyshirts.com
