Hi All:
 
The dance Ron is referring to is:
 
Silent Partner
Becket-L, 4/4/15
 
A1.      8          L diagonal circle L ¾
            8          N1 swing

A2.      8          R and L through

            2,6       Ladies pull by R, partner allemande L 1¼ to long waves      (1)

B1.      4,4       Balance, gents cross and ladies loop R to long waves            (2)

            4,4       Balance, ladies cross and gents loop R to long waves            (3)

B2.      4,4       Balance R and L, slide/spin R

            8          Partner swing

This way of combining box circulates and Rory spins is new, and it means partners circulate in different boxes even though they start the waves together.


(1) – With ladies facing out and gents facing in, partner in L and Sh1, the silent partner, in R.

(2) – With gents facing out and ladies facing in, N1 in R and N0 in L.
(3) – With ladies facing out and gents facing in, Sh1 in R and Sh2 in L.

I also agree with John Sweeney that the circulate balances should be balanced forward and back -

If you feel like mixing Box Circulate with Rory, here are two I've written and called:

Bob Isaacs also has a really nice Rory/Box Circulate mix, which I don't have the notes for.
