when I teach DSD I say "face your Nbr pass right shoulders,back-to-back, left
shoulders right back to where you started. Never have a problem with people using their
elbows like in 4th grade. If so, I tell them we don't use elbows in contra and they
get it.

It seems to be national - I've used it is in the south and west coast as well,
although usually I have to explain "we are no longer
in old country" for those inculcated with the folded-arms version so popular in
grade school. :-)
Thanx, Ric

On of my co-callers when teaching at our dance always refers to
do-si-do as "just like you learned in 4th grade" and most do remember
that one move. Maybe a New England thing? Anyway, you can drive that
tradition of adults remembering do-si-do.

Consider using singing games/playparties instead.
