This is one of the easiest double-progression dances I know. I often do this as a no-walkthrough dance.
This dance was written in desperation one night when I was calling our local dance and I left my cards on the kitchen table. It Worked!! I intended to call it The Panic Button in honor of its origin but events conspired against that name. Robert Cromartie picked it up from me at Feet Retreat then called it at his local dance. Afterwards Gene Hubert asked him "What was the name of that awesome double progression dance?" Robert wrote that as the title on his card and later submitted it to Larry Jennings under the name ADPD for inclusion in the next incarnation of Zesty Contras. (GIVE and Take) Since the new name was about to appear in print, it won.

I always carry an assortment of 3 face 3 and 4 face 4 since my home dance may range from 6 - 30 dancers.
Sometimes a move such as right hand high, left hand low presents a challenge for some of my dancers so I adjust on the fly. And may do a double progression so no one is ever out.

There is such a lack of attendance now post Covid in our area and I’m planning dances and then 20 people show. Do you have best selections or considerations for 20 to 16 peoples for intermediate experience dancers or secondarily less experienced dancers_______________________________________________
My immediate question is for more experienced dancers, because this is more of a complex preparation for me.
