Eye of the Storm

By Dan Pearl

Longways improper contra, Double progression

A1

• balance and swing on the side

A2

• circle left three quarters
• swing partner

B1

• circle left three quarters
• allemande right corner (once or twice)

B2

• half reel of four, ladies start by passing left
  • leaves everyone progressed
• ...flows into...half reel of four with next, ladies start by passing right
  • gives second progression.
  • That progression looks easy on paper, but it is difficult to convince dancers to do it. It works fine once they are convinced.
