The dance you’re looking for is:

KING OF THE KEYBOARD
Ted Sannella (for Bob McQuillen; first danced June 18, 1989)
Triple Minor; Proper
Two Swings, Actives & Neighbor 2’s

A1) Actives Swing (end facing down); Swing Neighbor Below (face across)
A2) Forward six and back; Actives Allemande Left 1-1/4 to center of lines of three across
B1) Forward six and back (across); Actives Allemande Left 1-1/4 to progressed position, then take right hand and...
B2) Actives Turn Contra Corners

As they conclude Contra Corners, actives resist the urge to balance, but move right into a partner swing as the dance begins again. This dance can really fly. Published in Larry Jennings’ Give-and-Take.

Eventually I’d like to get them to at least tolerate some of the traditional dances, but the learning curve of triple minor +plus unfamiliar figures + no swing has always been just too steep for them to manage. I’ve gone through Zesty Contras for more modern triples but so far haven’t found one that I think will work-so, what are your favourite triple minors? What worked-and what didn’t-in introducing them to a crowd used to at least one swing in every dance, and everybody moving most, if not all of the time?
