It's one that could have been independently generated several times.
It could be "A Fine Howdy Do" by Roberta Kogut, except I'm not sure if that
dance starts with a balance or a do-si-do.
If you make it a balance, and swap the right-and-left through with the ladies
chain to give both courtesy turns with neighbor, you get "Easy Street" by
Bob Isaacs.
I'm sure there's more I don't know of.

This dance sequence is "Culver City Contra" written in 1993 by James
Hutson, as found in Southern California Twirls. Caller is Jeff Spero.
The dance is improper.
and starts with the neighbor do-si-do.

I really enjoy collecting new dances, but they usually remain in a special
file, unused, until I learn the name and author.
Thanks very much to Michael Dyck for identifying this one, and also thanks
to Chris Page for your tremendous effort in supplying this information for
so many of the dance videos that can be found on the internet.
