A Slow Walk In The Park
Ron T Blechner
Duple Improper

A1: N B+S (16)*
A2: Circle L 3/4 (6)
      P S (10)
B1: LLF+B (8)
      Star L 1x (8)
B2: P Alle L 1x (8, forgiving)**
      Ladies Chain (8) (to N)

Notes:
* for slower music, a gypsy swing might be more appropriate, as the ladies
chain may end early, as Trip to Lambertville can do.
** Yes, the allemande once around is traditionally 6 beats. Stepping into a
star from a long lines can eat up an extra beat. This dance is intended for
basically two situations: 1. Early in the evening, when newbies will need
more time, especially with a star. 2. This should work well with faster
music, like Old Timey, and that slow allemande is going to feel a-ok. Just
remember to teach it something like: "A nice, easy allemande once around,
until the ladies face in". Similar timing slow-down can be seen in the
delightful dance "Joyride", where a gypsy 1x occupies 8 beats, and a novice
caller can easily forget to remind dancers to take it slow.
