Tulsa Tribute is a simple, lovely "contra waltz" that works well as a cool-down on a hot night. I sometimes use it as the next-to-last dance of the evening. The band needs to choose a waltz in AABB, rather than ABAB as many are usually played. If I teach it in tempo, they usually figure it out.

A1: Circle left 1/2, balance the ring
Circle left 1/2, balance the ring
A2: Ladies chain over and back (it really helps to call this in tempo - the ladies tend to pick up the loveliness of the waltz tempo with the chain)
B1: Full hey for four (ladies start by passing right shoulders)
B2: With your partner, waltz in place, end by sliding left to a new couple.
