Here's one that I've used for years: Chris & Lisa Found Each Other (Circle mixer, June 1997)<http://www.grantgoodyear.org/dance/dances.html#id6> A1. (16) P swing A2. (8) Circle left (8) Circle right B1. (8) Into the center and back (8) Into the center and back, end facing P and taking right hands B2. (16) Pull by to a single file promenade w/ men on the inside promenading ccw, women on outside promenading cw, look for a new partner Notes:
1. Written for the wedding of Chris Johnson and Lisa Edwards. 2. This dance is almost as much of a game as it is a dance, since I deliberately designed this dance so that it would be common for dancers to *not* have a partner at the end of B2. Thus, they would have to find a new partner from the "lost-and-found" in the center. 3. Experienced dancers have to be told up-front that the pull-by in B2 does *not* start a grand right and left. 4. I frequently use this dance with beginners because it's easy, lots of fun, and it sneakily gets across the idea that when something goes "wrong" in a dance, the dancers can fix it.
