I'm calling a dance on Valentine's Day and was
thinking about using that as
a theme for programming. What comes to mind would be dances with strong
partner interactions or figures - like couples DSD, give and take, or
couples weave the line - along with dances that involve leaving one's
partner and returning.
I'm interested to know what others have done with programming along similar
lines, what your thoughts were, and any dances you found particularly
appropriate.
