Re: [Callers] Unsual dances (Hexitation)

Becket dances can be used to great advantage with small crowds. Here we call becket dances where no one is every out "quad" beckets. That is becket dances that can be done with just 4 couples, with no one ever out at the end. Here is one such dance by Byron Ricker, called Chasing the "L" A1: On the L Diagonal, Right & Left Through; (stay where you are, if there is no one on your L diagonal) Ladies Chain Straight Across A2: Men Allemande L 1 ½ x (to partner) Gypsy with Partner B1: Hey for 4 (Women start with L sh) B2: Partner Balance & Swing With just 4 couples, and couples out at the ends, you end up with half the dances standing out half the time. Doing a dance where no one is ever out is a good thing for small crowds. Also, a Becket dance can be written where partners are changed, as well: A1: Circle L 1x; flatten circle into a wavy line, men in the middle by the L; Partner by the Right hand) Balance l/r; slide left. A2 Bal & swing partner. B1: Ladies chain on the L diagonal; On Mon, Oct 14, 2013 at 9:00 PM, Bill Baritompa <staf186(a)ext.canterbury.ac.nz> wrote:
