A1: N gypsy; mad robin
A2: half pousette CW (gents backing up); half hey (gents by L)
B1: gents pass L once more to cross set and swing P*
B2: ladies chain; LH star 1x
*originally written this way, but dancers need encouraging to not arrive at P too early. Alternately, just call this as a P b&s.

-DonThe path on the floor being the same, it rarely has a negative impact on others - provided you take care to face properly at the finish.-a "tighter" configuration for crowded conditions.You can often convert dances with a couple dosido to a pousette to achieve either:-better connection with a (often novice) partner (particularly if the dosi seems to be happening slowly relative to the music) orOn Sat, Jun 13, 2015 at 2:09 AM, George Mercer via Callers <callers@lists.sharedweight.net> wrote:Hi: One of the newer additions to the contra dance repertory, and one that I like, is the pousette -- in all its variations.
