For those interested, Cary Ravitz has a dance with the same key figure
except that the men are in the middle instead of the women called Four on
the Floor (1999). I am copying it here, in case people are interested in
some variety.
Four on the Floor Cary Ravitz 1-1999
Becket, counter-clockwise
A1 - Right and left through across (8).
- On the left diagonal, only if there is someone there, ladies chain
(8).
A2 - Hands across star left 7/8 (3+1/2 places) so that men are
in the middle (8).
- Keep hands in the star and men take hands in a long wavy line in
the middle.
- Men balance right and left and ladies balance left and right (4).
- Men slide right and ladies slide left with a Rory O'More spin (4).
B1 - Men balance left and right and ladies balance right and
left (4).
- Men slide left and ladies slide right (4).
- Hands across star left 7/8 (8).
B2 - Look away from the star for your partner to balance and
swing (16).

Hey everyone,
I was talking to dean the other day and mentioned that more than one
person had request edit his excellent dance, and asked whether it was ok to
share it with everyone. So here is Our House, by Dean Snipes. Deb, I know
I wrote that the star is 3/4, but it really is 1x.
Cheers,
Andrea
