- | 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 | + | |
