Subject: [Callers] Dances where everyone balances 5 or more times ??
I've written two, but wonder if anyone know of others?

Here’s one of mine that fits the bill:

I often call it with a meltdown swing at the end bc that many balances can
start to feel TOO MUCH unless the band is hot enough that the balancy
energy is IRRESISTIBLE—but with a rockin’ band the all-balances version is
SO FUN.

The Caller's Box currently has 165:

(And 61 dances with 6+ balances, 13 with 7+, 7 with 8, none with 9+)

There are some false positives in the Caller's Box list, since
alternating dances have all the figures listed twice. So, Labor of
Love appears to have 6 balances when it only has 3.
Still, "Balance Bouquet" by Al Olson comes by its 7 balances honestly.
