I think it depends on your creativity and more specifically the move/ 
dance/program.

In the past there have been plenty of instances where I've introduced  
moves in a square first and of course the other way around.  If I  
have a move I want the dancers to know very well I may use a contra  
to introduce it because they'll do it many times.   Have fun with it!
