Choreography for Patter Teaching with Singing Call Options:
Teaching Tips:
Recycle (From a Wave only)
A.) Ends solo Wheel and Deal while the other folds and follow adjacent end to be partners.
B.) From right hand waves, feels like centers run, half tag, and face in.
C.) Each half of the wave will end up facing each other.
D.) Can be described as ends start to trade or cross fold while centers Zoom out to follow the leading end.
More teaching suggestions:
— It is important to release all handholds at the start of the call. The original end dancer should keep the previously connected hand available for reconnection when the original center dancer is comfortable doing so.
— Explain that the Center dancers walk almost a full circle to finish a small step back from where they started and beside the dancer they followed.
