Moon and Stars duple improper Works fine with "The Moon and Seven Stars" (jig) but we found more energy from a reel. "Cold Frosty Morning" was nice. Maybe a jig-to-reel medley? A1 1-4 Balance the ring and California twirl your P to face old Ns 5-8 With those olds Ns, LH star once around A2 1-8 Come back to current Ns for balance and swing B1 1-4 Men allemande 1-1/2 5-8 P swing B2 1-4 Circle L 3/4 and pass through 5-8 New N dosido into a ring of 4 As some other folks have noted, it's a good idea to introduce the dancers to all the characters in the sequence before you start moving. You've got your current Ns in the circle with you, look over your shoulder for your old Ns, and look past your current Ns for the next Ns. In this dance it's good for the folks who go out at the end in the B2 to turn as a cpl right away. They're needed just 8 bars later. I've had beginner dancers get confused by that, and am now trying to be more mindful of letting them know how soon they need to be ready to come back into the pattern.
