Description

We’d love to get directions added to this listing. How do we do that? If you can do it directly, here are the dance directions from the book:

32 Bar Jig for 3 couples in a 4-couple set

1-8 1st, 2nd, and 3rd couples set. 2nd couple turn by the right and cast off one place and dance up to the top. 1st couple cast off on Bars 7 and 8. 2nd and 1st couples end in the center of the set with both hands joined facing opposite sides

9-16 2nd and 1st couples poussette

17-24 1st and 2nd couples dance the Knot. 1st couple finish with 1st man between the 3rd couple and 1st woman between the 2nd couple facing their 1st corners.

25-32 1st couple dance left shoulder reels of three across the set, 1st man with 3rd couple beginning by passing 3rd woman by the left, 1st woman with 2nd couple beginning by passing 2nd man by the left. Finish 2nd place on own sides.

Repeat, having passed a couple

Written in honor of Andrea Taylor-Blenis, who was highly instrumental in the success of the Teacher Candidate Class in 2014-2015. Without her dancing expertise, the class would not have accomplished what it did.

If it’s easier, we can also send a jpg or other file format.
