Subject: Re: [trad-dance-callers] Fred Feild, how do you call that figger?

  



Telling folks to *gently* keep hold of hands is important. They will
tend to let go

As Colin said, telling the center couple to turn "back to back" is
important to get them oriented. I usually say "turn away from each
other" but emphasize keeping hands joined.

And per Jonathan's note -- calling it a "cozy" line is helpful --
there will be a tendency for the ones on the end to start trailing
behind the center couple and it is a very good reminder word.

Here's another very nice dance that has that figure and goes well with
all those old time jigs y'all like to play:
