+There are several videos of this dance on the Lambertsville ECD Video list.
+**All** of them show how challenging the timing in this dance is for dancers.
+Despite the languid tune, dancers must move VERY briskly. And there is really
+no time to catch up. An **unforgiving** dance, but a very nice one if all the
+dancers can handle to pace. --- //[[nashjc]] 2019/04/14 16:02//
