Re: [Callers] Thanks for New Years Ideas

Karen, "Lucky Five" is Bob's slight variation on "Lucky Seven:" Lucky Five Bob Dalsemer Circle Mixer -- Easy A1: Circle Left, circle right A2: Forward and back, face partner and do-si-do B1: Grand right & left, counting partner as one. Swing the fifth. B2: Promenade the one you swung. Because you pass four people, this sets you up nicely for a square with a grand R&L later in the evening. You can of course count aloud "one, two, three, four, five" but Bob suggested "A, E, I, O, U" with "You!" being the one you swing. This can also be used as an easy square break, easy since there's no corner allemande to set up the grand R&L. In a square I would change the B2 to eight-count promenade and swing again at home. Or grand R&L all the way home (16) & swing (16). Jerome Message: 4
