I have had good success with Bob Dalsemer's January Mixer. Jo Mortland Sent from my iPhone

Dear Ron, I find that circle mixers can be a great choice! There is something quite lovely about all the dancers being in the same set together. I will often use a circle mixer when there are a large number of newer dancers; there are lots of great reasons to do so! On occasion, a scatter mixer is another way of generating partner change, and some fun. Here are some of my favorite circles: Atlantic Mixer by unknown Circle Mixer/Circle/Easy A1 ----------- Promenade A2 ----------- Ladies turn back, Gents continue all single file B1 ----------- New Partner allemande right Allemande Left B2 ----------- Partner Balance & Swing (can be dosido and 2 hand turn) Cabot School Mixer by Ted Sannella Circle Mixer/Easy A1 ----------- Circle right Forward and back A2 ----------- Circle left Corner allemande right once Partner allemande left once B1 ----------- Corner do si do and swing B2 ----------- Promenade First Turn in May by Tom Hinds Circle Mixer/Improper/Easy A1 ----------- Forward and back Forward and back A2 ----------- Corner (previous partner) Allemande left Partner allemande right Corner allemande left Pass this partner by the right B1 ----------- New Partner Balance and Swing B2 ----------- Promenade I Don’t Know Why by unknown Circle Mixer/Improper/Beginner A1 ----------- Circle left Circle right A2 ----------- Everybody forward and back Only the ladies forward, turn around, look to the left diagonal B1 ----------- New Partner do si do and Swing B2 ----------- Promenade Let's Celebrate the Day by Linda Leslie Circle Mixer/Circle/Beginner A1 ----------- Circle Left Circle Right A2 ----------- Ladies into the center, turn alone return and swing *this* partner B1 ----------- Gents into the center, turn alone (a new partner is slightly on the right) return and swing your new partner B2 ----------- Promenade North Shore Mixer by Tony Parkes Circle Mixer/Improper/Easy A1 ----------- Circle left Circle right (or f & b twice) A2 ----------- Corner allemande left once Partner allemande right once Corner allemande left once B1 ----------- Partner do si do Corner swing B2 ----------- Promenade Welcoming New Friends by Dale Rempert Circle Mixer/Improper/Easy A1 ----------- Circle Right Forward and Back A2 ----------- Circle left Forward and back...on the way back, roll away with a half sashay, (ladies to the left) B1 ----------- Balance and Swing the next B2 ----------- Promenade On Oct 25, 2012, at 11:31 AM, Ron T Blechner wrote:
