Thanks for the help. I thought the shadow would be next to you on the side of
the set. I can't wait to call this one. Unfortunately I won't be calling
again until March 16. Does anyone have or know where to find any dances
pertaining to St. Patty's Day?

I am not familiar with this dance - but if you are on the same side of the set
s your partner - a shadow cannot be located on the other side - so they will be
n the same side somewhere to your right or left.

In Groundhog Daze how would you teach this? If you are next to your partner in
ecket where is your "shadow" in relation to you? Is he next to you on the side
r across from you your Nbr? Can't seem to figure this out. Help please.

im just wanted to let you know that I also called your dance to the
joyment of the audience. I started it at your B1 for an end-of-tune
ogression (as Mark noted).

Jim, your dance strikes me as a rather unique combination of moves, and I
ould be surprised if it had already been written. It looks like it has
ice flow, have you called it to live dancers yet?
Mark Widmer
p.s. I notice it could also start at B1 (as a duple improper dance that
rogresses in the expected place), or at A2 (as a Becket dance that ends
ith a partner swing).

I'm fairly new to Calling and fascinated with Contra dance choreography.
Below is my attempt at a Groundhog day dance. The groundhog starts his
day by looking for his shadow and so does this dance.
Groundhog Daze Becket
A1 Gypsy your shadow
Partner swing
A2 Circle left 3 places
Balance the circle, 1's make an arch, 2's dive thru
B1 Next neighbor balance and swing
B2 Long lines forward and back
Ladies allemande right 1/2, partner allemande left 3/4
I know there are thousands of dances out there so if this is not an
original, please let me know the true name.
Thanks, Jim Hemphill
