We have danced one of them, the other is by concept only, but will be vetted this weekend. The formation might be described as "proper becket" - if you line up proper and turn the group of four one place to the left. Jim's first dance, nicknamed*  Missionary Men*, suggests another way to describe this formation. I had written an English style dance using this also, but Jim's dances are vastly superior I think. Proper Becket (proposed "Greenfield formation) A1 1st corners Chain with a courtesy turn     Mad robin (1st corners in 1st) then step to an ocean wave (1st corners in center join right, left to same sex neighbor) A2 Balance right and left, slide right     Partner swing B1 Slide left circle left 3     Neighbor swing B2 Ladies chain, gent 1 roll your partner away     Long line forward and back Fairly similar to May the 5th Be With You http://dancevideos.childgrove.org/contra/contra-modern/443-mission-men On Wed, May 15, 2013 at 5:49 AM, Bob Isaacs <isaacsbob(a)hotmail.com> wrote: _______________________________________________ Callers mailing list Callers(a)sharedweight.net http://www.sharedweight.net/mailman/listinfo/callers
