I wrote an AABBCC dance about a year ago that I haven't had the chance to call yet, based on Don Flaherty's Heartbeat Contra. I wrote it because I wanted a simple 48-bar dance to pull out for a fun change of pace without too much added difficulty, but all the ones I could find were far more complex than I wanted (with uncommon/advanced figures that many beginners may find daunting). Each move of this dance are all figures that I often have taught in the first half of our regular monthly Contra Dances. I've been debating in which order to put the Robins Chain/Long Lines, so feel free to play with it and do what works best. If anyone chooses to call the dance, please send me feedback! _________
