A Sleeper.

I taught the dance to a set of six advanced dancers with two very raw beginners. They liked it. If you are a technique hound then this dance probably won’t be to your taste, it is pleasant but not spectacular. It is a social, not a show, vehicle.

At first viewing there is little to recommend it - when it is danced well it is very pretty. It is all about timing and finishing the formations almost late. That is when it shines.
