-Teaching Notes:
-This is a simple dance which works well for new dancers, and the tune is so wonderfully joyful that
-everyone seems to enjoy it. B1. I like each figure to fit two bar phrases, and for all four figures
-to feel like one fluid movement. Though I do not often use the words "gate" and "half figure eight,"
-I think newer dancers begin to get the feel for those figures here without even knowing it. That is
-intentional. B2. Encourage intermediate dancers to start the star L on their right foot, so the new
-first corners have a nice transition into the setting at the top of A1 Background
