HEPTATHLON JIG 7*32-bar jig via Barrie Bullimore on the trad-callers list. 7 dancers of any gender, no partners. a line of 3 dancers on each side of the set and the seventh in the centre facing up to the band/caller A1 Centre dancer and top two to his/her right star right; centre dancer and top two on left star left A2 Centre dancer and bottom two on right, star right, centre dancer and bottom two on left, star left B1 Centre dancer and the centre dancers of each side line, hey/reel for three (say, right shoulder, coming out of the star) B2 Centre dancer and top right dancer allemande right once and a half to change places; All balance right & left and the side dancers move one place to their left crossing at the top & bottom as necessary while the new centre dancer balances again. NOTES (from Barrie Bullimore) It flows wonderfully well! I believe it is a Scottish dance written by Alan White of the Wimbledon Scottish Dance Club. It must be interesting for Scottish dance bands as they have probably never played times seven! I've found it also works well at ONS's if you make B1 the centre dancer dancing a figure of eight round the centre people in the line.
