Hi, Bree!
That is a very novel way to get into a short wave Balance! and not al tall gimmicky, in my view. I watched the video…thanks for including the link. I have two questions for you:
It seems the dance is double progression, correct?
For the single do si do: the dancers stay back to back with their Neighbors to start, and actually do a 3/4 dosido into the wave, and must turn around  (neighbor now in right hand), right? This means that each dancer is facing their original direction of travel once in the wave. The link really helped with this move; when I read the dance, in my head I was picturing the dancers moving very differently.

Thanks for the dance!
warmly, Linda

I wrote a dance that has a move I've not seen in a dance before. Although I'd rather not call it a gimmick. The 'reviews' so far have been good. There’s a video of Jack Mitchell calling the dance here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eEp2vlYq1Nc&feature=youtu.be

This is My Brain on Buddha             Imp


A1  Partners DoSiSo as a couple just ½ way until back-to-back with these Neighbors. 

       Drop hands with your Ptr, and complete the DosiDo solo with the N you have your back to, 

       until the women can take L hands, Rt to N, in a wavy line of 4.  

       Balance the wave, walk forward to next Ns in a new wave of 4.


A2 Balance this wave; with this new N, Swg.


B1 Face across, Mad Robin (Gents sliding in front to the right to start) 

      Men keep moving to cross the set to your Ptr; Swg.


B2 Circle L ¾; Balance the Ring, Calif Twirl




A dancer suggested naming the move in A1 “Double Dose.” I like it, but another caller, Jack Mitchell, discouraged me from making up a new name when just explaining the move will do.  I’m curious what others think.
