 Our Lesson Log- Kirk Rockerbie 

Welcome to Square Dance. I am looking forward to teaching you the pleasure of modern square dance. My emphasis will be on having fun, and maybe a few cookies. In this blog I will be able to give you a review of the last lesson and a heads up for your next week.

A sample - below are entries from our last set of classes, take a look but beware- square dance is easier to do than describe in writing

2.Centers In
 
Without changing facing direction, the outside dancers step away from each other to make room for the center dancers, who step forward to end between them.

  1. Cast off 3/4
 
Used after the call “put centers in”. From a line that is created after Put Center In,  each half of the line works together: each couple, as a unit, turns away from the center of the line for 3/4 of a circle (270 degrees).

4.Ferris Wheel
 
Each Couple Steps Forward. Out-facing couples do their part, Wheel And Deal. In-facing Couples form a momentary Two-Faced Line in the center, and without stopping Wheel And Deal.

5.Zoom
 
Lead dancer walks in a full circle, turning away from the center point, and ending up on the spot of the trailing dancer. The trailing dancer walks forward to take the spot of the lead dancer. It is important that the lead dancers initiate the roll out movement with a slight forward motion to allow sufficient room for the trailing dancers to step forward comfortably.
