Begin Again......
Dance should be done in Contra Lines using windows
(do not stand directly in front of the dancer facing you).
When doing steps 17-24 hold up your right hand and place
it against the right hand of the dancer to your right.
(On the mirror half of the dance it will be the left
hand during counts 57-64).
This dance can also be done using two (2) circles.
If you have a group big enough you can make 2 circles
rather than lines. If you are doing this you will do only the
first 39 counts of the dance as written and then
change the 40th count to a touch rather than a step.
Then start over on count 1. Doing the dance this way
will allow the dancers to change "partners" around the circle.
