Cracking moves last night

**Lou** · 10th-September-2002, 11:16 AM

Dunno whether anyone's interested - but as the forums are a bit quiet lately, I thought I'd post a couple of moves we did at St Bon's last night, which I thought were good to dance & that maybe might interest someone else on here...

First one was a variation on a First Move - when you get to the return, spin the lady an extra half turn, so that she's in front of you, but with her back to you. Stop her spinning by bringing your left arm down to her hip (still holding on to her right hand), and taking hold of her left hand (her arms are crossed in front of her). Pause there for a count (best to place feet apart). Take 4 beats to wiggle up & down).

We exited with a Comb/Crazy Catapult. So - from the previous position, the man should place lady's left hand on right shoulder (1 count), right hand on left shoulder (1 count) (btw...keep wiggling for style), push away & catch, so that you're in a Catapult position (except with the Lady in front - hence the Crazy Catapult bit, just in case it's called something different in CEROC), lady leads man around to the right & into proper Catapult position - and exit as normal.

To quote Murray Walker, "Unless I'm very much mistaken..... and I AM very much mistaken".

I couldn't work out the moves, but have now managed, so have removed the stupid question formerly posted here.

*lol* I missed the question, anyway!

It's bloomin' difficult to describe moves - especially when I prefer visual communication. I'm always first on the whiteboard at meetings.
