I used this dance recently (I was an emergency substitute) and was very pleased with how
well it went. Not only is it a no-partner dance, it doesn’t even matter how big the
circles are (though I did have them start out in circles of 4). So no one gets left out
even if the scatter to make new circles is chaotic. It’s also easy to get them into one
big circle for the last time through and that’s a very nice way to end.
I think I got it here on Shared Weight, thanks Claire!

*Any number in scattered circles
A1 Bal ring 2x, CL
A2 Bal ring 2x, CR
B1. LHS (pile of LH in the middle, keep walking same direction after CR) countdown 3-2-1
B2 Boom! Throw hands up and all twirl out of the star and make new circles.
Can end with one big circle
Claire says: I wrote a dance with no Partners that I love for family or parties where you
start with a few and folks keep dropping in, but it also works for a large group.
