Some dances that stretch dancers’ skills in ways that aren’t necessarily 
complex choreo:

* Will Mentor’s Lethbridge Contra alternated with James Hutson’s Culver City 
Contra (alternating right and left thru, right hand chain vs left and right 
thru, left hand chain)
* Jeremy Korr’s The Digital Divide (similar concept)
* Yoyo’s Zhou’s Waxmyrtle (the choreo here is not hard, the “challenge” is in 
doing a contra to slipjig time. Note that you will need to check with the band 
in advance if they have a slipjig to play and ensure it’s the right length)
* Gene Hubert’s Fan In The Doorway (also slipjig, same note as above, longer 
than the one above and more complex)
