Re: [Callers] List of contra dance figures

Jim said: = = = = = = = = By the way, contra choreographer Al Olson coined the term "line heys for threes" to describe actions such as [starting with 1's already below 2's] Gypsy R with Neighbor Gypsy L with next neighbor I've also seen actions similarly analogous to heys for four--e.g., from duple improper starting formation, pass N by R sh to meet future N and gypsy L, then pass orig N by R sh again to meet N from previous round and gypsy L. = = = = = = = = I love these moves and have heard them called Gypsy Heys. That's another one for your list, Sam. And while we are on heys, do you have these on your list: Tapsalteerie Hey (Ladies half hey, men ricochet, ladies ricochet, ladies half hey) (Tapsalteerie is Scottish for topsy-turvy, apparently) Cupid's Hey (see Jim Hemphill's dance of the same name) Celtic Hey (see Kathy Anderson's "The Tropical Gentleman") Wizard's Walk Happy dancing, John John Sweeney, Dancer, England john(a)modernjive.com 01233 625 362 http://www.contrafusion.co.uk for Dancing in Kent
