Thank you Bob for reminding me that it is not necessary to tell the
dancers that a particular dance is traditional. That could entirely
change the way some perceive it.

Several years ago at a dance camp on the west coast, I included several triple
minor dances in my program over the course of the three days. A camper
approached one of camp organizers and asked, quite happily, "What's the story
with these 'Hands Six' dances? Is this a new thing that's been invented back
East?"
