Re: [Callers] Waltz-Time Contra Choreography

Ric, that looks more like a normal contra than a waltz contra to me. Can you share your experience of swinging, or teaching a swing, to waltz music?

I danced one once many years ago and haven't thought much about it since, though it was pretty special. Thank you in advance for sharing some choreography!
