It doesn't have a name, but the very first dance I do in a contra lesson (after a few basics in a big circle) is:

A1 1-4    Circle left
A1 5-8    Circle right
A2 1-4    Balance the ring twice
A2 5-8    All move forwards (couples facing the band arching over)

Hello hive mind.

What are the absolute easiest duple minor dances you know? I know:

Title: Family Contra

Author: Sherry Nevins

A1: Balance 2x; Circle left (8)

A2: Balance 2x; Circle right (8)

B1: Neighbor DSD (8); Partner DSD (8)

B2: As couple, neighbor DSD 1.5 (16)

What other dances do you have that are duple minor and just as easy to teach to people who have never danced before? No swing needed!

Thanks
