Subject: [Callers] Looking for a contra dance where dancers raise their fists and shout hey

Hello! 

I remember seeing a video of a contra dance a few years back, perhaps during some kind of workshop, where one of the moves involved dancers pumping their fists into the air and saying something. I think they were saying "hey," but I'm not completely sure. I remember that the dance seemed like it was at a typical contra dance level of difficulty and was a duple minor, not a simple family dance.

Does anyone know what dance this might be?

Thanks!
