MUSIC: “Twenty-Something” by Jonathan Jensen. Teaching Point:
It helps at the outset to make it clear who W2 is. Also, in B(5-6), point out to the dancers that there is distinct music for making the circle. Experienced dancers, who have been conditioned to 8-bar “chunks,” may have a tendency to rush through this bit of the dance.
