Someone at dancing mentioned "Polka-geist" as a pun. What a great dance name I thought. So developed a Contra dance with a polka feel and scary and back-to-front moves.

A1 In ballroom hold, gallop across the set, the couple on the women's normal side separating to let the couple on the men's normal side pass through (4 beats)

Polka balance towards the centre of the set (4 beats)

A2 Polka once around the other couple and continue anti-clockwise around the set to progress to the next couple
B1 Allemande partner right half-way (4 beats)

Balance the long wavy lines (make a face or say boo to your neighbour) (4 beats)
