Re: [Callers] Double petronella Dance -- Name?

2018-02-11 Thread John Sweeney via Callers
Hi,

  I don’t know that dance.  But I have another dance with that move 
in my file.

 

  I learnt it as a “Petronella Pivot”.

 

  You’ll find the dance, “A Glimpse of Beauty “, at 
http://charleyharvey.com/dances.html

 

Happy dancing,  

   John

[Callers] The Wheel

2018-02-11 Thread Kalia Kliban via Callers
I can no longer find the original post about The Wheel circle mixer, but 
I'd like to thank the person who recommended it.  I used it, with Mac 
MacKeever's modification of rolling the women to the inside before going 
into the middle, at a contra last night with a large percentage of 
energetic teenagers.  It was excellent!  Just the right amount of silly 
as the odd socks scrambled to find each other in the middle, and plenty 
of time for them to get back into the promenade.  It's playful, pretty 
hard to break, and very quick to teach.  It's a keeper!

Jack, I'd like to call the dance you just sent but have a question.

How close do the men get to each other as they do the double Pet?   
Since you've danced this, how might it work in a crowded hall?  Might  
the men crash into each other on the spin?
