I think you need to distinguish between a touch which is part of the dance and one which isn't. If we're doing a circle left or lines forward and back and I can sense that my neighbour has forgotten to do the ladies' chain I will urge her forward. That's very different from grabbing someone on the other side of the set and pulling them to where they should be. Colin Hume
