Re: [Callers] Reverse R/L thru?
In 1992 I wrote and called this: A1 bal and sw N A2 left and right through, men chain B1 men L gypsy, swing P B2 circle left 3/4 pass through and do-si-do the next. Left and right through: pull by P with left and women courtesy turn the men.

Re: [Callers] Reverse R/L thru?
Wouldn't the set up be that you pull by left across? Maybe from a left hand star. then you'd have your right hand free for the revers turn.

Re: [Callers] Reverse R/L thru?
For a), there's a couple of gender-swapped right and left throughs:. "Convolution 2" by Merri Rudd "House Husband's Reel" by Eric Conrad "Jackson's Hornpipe" (traditional) "Just Elegance" by Chris Page "Pleasantly Surprised" by David Smukler "Tuesday Child" by Brian Jones "Women in Charge" by Melanie Axel-Lute "Worth the Wait" by Tom Hinds I don't know any in case b). It'd be awful confusing, kind of like a petronella turn to the left, as there's nothing in the set-up of the move to force a clockwise courtesy turn. In category c): (often pairs of proper right and left throughs with different people one the left/right at different times) "Crestwood Reel" (traditional) "The Double Plow" by Al Olson "Double Plow #4" by Al Olson "Elegance and Simplicity" (traditional) "New Mountain Contra" by Al Olson "On Alternate Sides" by Al Olson "Path to the Past" by Chris Page "Up to My Ears in Right and Left" by Larry Jennings -Chris Page San Diego, CA On Mon, Jun 13, 2016 at 8:04 AM, Maia McCormick via Callers wrote: > Have you all encountered or written dances for a "reverse R/L through"?
Re: [Callers] Reverse R/L thru?
I'm not familiar with option a or b dances. Are you looking for something with that? As for the option c, older dances that have right and left through (and back) in proper lines have the 1s and 2s doing the reverse of each other; and some of them are doing what you're describing. That's the closest thing that comes to my mind.

[Callers] Reverse R/L thru?
Have you all encountered or written dances for a "reverse R/L through"? To my mind, this move might be any of the following: a. cross the set with the lady on the left and gent on the right, lady courtesy turns gent (with the traditional CCW courtesy turn b. cross the set with the lady on the right and gent on the left (as usual), lady courtesy turns gent (with a REVERSE courtesy turn, ie CW, as would happen on a gent's chain) c. ??!?!?
