This one was inspired by Seth Tepfer's dance in one of the Mockingjay
movies:
To Call a Mockingjay by Dale Wilson, (2016)
Contra Improper
A1: Neighbor do-si-do & Swing
A2: Gents Allemande Left 1 ½;
Partner Swing
B1: Ring Balance, Petronella twirl (with a clap)
Ring Balance Petronella (no clap)
B2: Star Left;
Ladies Chain
Teaching notes:
B1: Encourage the dancers to clap on the first Petronella (they will
anyway), then strongly suggest that they skip the clap on the second one so
it will flow right into the star. Some of them will clap anyway because
they can't help themselves, but most of them like the flow.
B2: As they end the star, tell ladies to reach their free right hands
across the star to each other, then tell them it's a ladies chain to their
neighbors.
