We did this one at Reformation Day and I was hopelessly confused, until I watched the video and thought, "Oh, THAT's how it goes... that's easy!" :-) So again... the video is going to be much more helpful than the written directions (which I guess is the case with pretty much all of them... or maybe it's just me).
Notice how the gents don't necessarily wait until the ladies are all back in position before they start going around. This is a fast dance and they just go with the music.
Ladies take hands in line, skip around the men (moving counter-clockwise) and back to place.
Men the same (clockwise).
1st couple (furthest to right) takes hands and moves around 2nd couple (gent moving forward first - "pushing" lady), 2nd couple moves up, 1st couple around 3rd couple, 3rd couple moving up and then back
1st couple back up and around 2nd couple, 2nd couple returns to place.
1st couple cross (switch places) and cast to second
1st couple cross again and cast to third
1st couple lead up the middle of the set and cast to the bottom.
Repeat.
If you have any questions leave a comment! Many thanks to Old Dominion Dance for the instructions and video.
