Re: [Callers] Two Face Three Dance Inquiry
I have a dance I think is called 'turn back jack' - part if it is 3 face 2 and the 2 dosido with the center dancer in the line of 3. It goes into a basket swing in a way that is hard to explain - but i will try I will not relate this to the music because it never seems to be able to keep up - so it is more free form. All 5 right star - one person is designate as the JackJack drops out of the star and turns back the other way an chooses someone to swingThe other 3 do a basket swing and end in line of 3 facing the other 2 who were swingingWho ever ends up in the center of the line of 3 is the Jack next time aroundLine of 2 dosido with person in center of line of 3Center person returns to center of line - but faces out and crosses arms to take hands in line of 2other 2 join to make a circle of 5 with the new Jack facing out with arms crossedJack raises top arm to make arch and pulls 2 dancers into middle of circleno one lets go - center dancers raise arms over others to make a basket (yes - this actually works!)Basket swing - release to right star and start again.

[Callers] Two Face Three Dance Inquiry
Folks, I remember dancing a dance where two people face a line of three. I believe there was a Dosido as lines of two and three, but I cannot remember the dance. Does anyone recall such a dance.
