+Teaching points:\\
+For Bars 21-24 we've found it more helpful to call “bottoms lead up while tops cast” rather than identifying numbers.\\
+At the beginning of the first time through the dance for each new active couple, the old active couple needs to cast to the bottom while the old 4s who have just become 3s do the petronella with an adjustment to end in 3 place.
+Chris wrote a version of this dance in 1997 to honor Susan Mann, a vibrant dancer in our
+community who died before her time. She didn’t always know where she was in the dance and
+when that happened she would yell ‘petroNELL.” The first version was more complicated and we worked on it a few years ago to make it more accessible.
