Does anybody know of dances inspired by "Beneficial Tradition" by Dan Pearl
that includes the "zipper" figure (B2 of "Beneficial Tradition") or
variations of that figure? I just wrote one myself, so I'm curious to see
what else is out there.
Here's mine:
Dela Says Yippee by Dugan Murphy (Clockwise Becket)
A1 Long Lines Forward and Back (8) / Neighbor Left Hand Pull-by Across the
Set (hopping and shouting recommended on the fourth beat) (4) - New
Same-Role Dancer Across the Set Right Hand Pull-by Across the Set (hopping
and shouting recommended on the fourth beat) (4)
A2 New Ladies (not the one just pulled by) Left Hand Allemande 1.5 (8) /
Neighbor Swing
B1 Circle Left 3 Places (8) / Partner Di-Si-Do (8)
B2 Partner Balance & Swing (16)
