The dance is a double progression dance, so alerting dancers to the
fact that "you will quickly be back in the dance at the top" should
help. I also find that encouraging dancers to have an odd number of
couples (an extra couple at the bottom of the set) helps; this way,
they will get to dance with more of their neighbors.

find that Becket dances can start in a great variety of ways. "Tenth

Here's a Beckett with a circle that doesn't start with a circle:
