That’s because the shouting bit wasn’t in the original dance.  Someone did it 
and it caught on.

 

            Happy dancing,

                   John

Thank you all!

 

I think it was indeed Beneficial Tradition. I now vaguely remember there being 
a wavy line in the dance, so that must be the one! I'm glad to learn of the 
triplet and XYZ dances as well. It was hard to search for the dance since the 
shouting bit isn't always mentioned in the written choreography. 

 

Thanks for your help, 

 

Kyla
