Re: [Callers] Petronella spins

I wrote an easy and interesting dance involving that figure. There are no chains or stars, an easy progression, and the dancers are al;ways connected to someone (other than in the pass thru and the petronella figure itself). I also give the dancers the option to just slide 1 place to the right if they don't want to do the clockwise spin. Hope this helps in your quest for these dances. Here it is: Petronella's Pin Dave Colestock, 8/05/2005 Duple, Improper A1 Balance in a Ring of 4, Spin to the Right 1 Place Balance in a Ring of 4, Spin to the Right 1 Place A2 Balance in a Ring of 4 Swing Neighbor B1 Give and Take, Ladies bring back Partner Partner Swing B2 CL 3/4 Balance the Ring Pass Thru to New Neighbors Notes: in the B1, As Couples, Go Forward, Ladies bring back Partner quickly (in 4 beats) to Swing Partner.

I am going to call for an unknown mixed dance this weekend and would like to use this figure somewhere in the program. I have used "Maliza's Magical Mystery Motion" before but it seems like it might be a little bit challenging if there are a lot of beginners. Your suggestions would be appreciated. If you can include or point me to the transcription, that would also greatly help.
