Hi, I have called this dance before but a part of my directions does not make sense to me. Have you called it? The dance is Dancing Bear, by Becky Hill. Duple Improper (A1) Neighbor Allemande Right (½ ) (4) / Same Neighbor Allemande Left (ONCE AROUND) (also in 4!)/ Ladies Chain ( ½ ) (8) (A1) Hey (16) (B1) Partner Balance and Swing (16) (B2) Ladies Chain ( ½ ) (8) /Star left (once to new neighbors) (8) A Great dance!!!!!!!!!!!! What is puzzling me is this: The Allemande Left (in A1) seems to need to be closer to ONCE AND A HALF to set up for the ladies chain and doing THAT in 4 counts would be too much. I have called it, and I called it as once around and it did look like the dancers were going more than one half way around (the other option), so what do you think was really going on. How do you call this dance?
