This is one I wrote that I’ve called a couple of times and people liked it. It is unequal in that the ones swing, but you can easily alternate between ones and twos if the dancers are more experienced. If you look at the link it will make the move clear, in case my explanation doesn’t quite get the idea across.

Gimmick is a term used in MWSD publications to describe surprise or unusual choreography. The type of dances I am looking for are dances that have an unusual element, whether it be a different move like rip 'n snort, an unusual application as in Bree's "couple to solo" Dosido, or an unusual progression. These dances are easy enough for a floor with many beginners but novel (?) enough for most dancers to enjoy.

Using familiar moves in new ways is IMO called "good choreography." If one defines using existing moves in novel ways as "gimmick," basically every use of petronella turns and waves after "Petronella" and "Rory O'Moore" is a gimmick. Originally had a long list of dances, but then i saw "easy" in Rich's original ask, so pared down: "Anthem to a Pet Ferret" by Sargon de Jesus may be of interest "A Sure Thing" by Chris Page is challenging to teach but not actually challenging to dance also do si do and swing the one behind offers a simple but fun twist. U can find it in Tom Hinds' "Python Reel" and Rick Mohr's "Leave the Wine" _______________________________________________ Callers mailing list Callers(a)lists.sharedweight.net <mailto:Callers@lists.sharedweight.net> http://lists.sharedweight.net/listinfo.cgi/callers-sharedweight.net <http://lists.sharedweight.net/listinfo.cgi/callers-sharedweight.net> _______________________________________________ Callers mailing list Callers(a)lists.sharedweight.net http://lists.sharedweight.net/listinfo.cgi/callers-sharedweight.net
