Grand Workingdirectionanything
is a precise
way to state how to do the Grand version of a 4-dancer call. In the past, the
Grand version of each call often had to be memorized, since there were slight
differences that no single rule would cover. EN: 10
Grand Workingdirectionanything
je přesný způsob vyjádření jak má fungovat Grand verze figury, která je normálně pro čtyři lidi. V minulosti to bylo tak, že se tanečníci museli Grand verze různých figur naučit nazpaměť, protože neexistovalo jednotné pravidlo. CZ: 10
In order to define Grand Working, we must first define what we
mean by a pair. A pair is a set of 2 dancers such that: EN: 20
Abychom mohli definovat Grand Working, musíme nejprve zadefinovat pojem pair (dvojice). Dvojice jsou dva tanečníci, pro které plati: CZ: 20
The 2 dancers within the pair are physically adjacent. EN: 30
Dva tanečníci ve Dvojici jsou fyzicky vedle sebe. CZ: 30
Každý tanečník je členem právě jedné dvojice. CZ: 40
Pairs are constructed along the long axis of the formation.
To obtain the pairs within a formation you need
to draw imaginary lines perpendicular to the long axis of the
formation, dividing the formation into sets of 2 dancers. EN: 50
Dvojice se nacházejí podél dlouhé osy formace. Pro získání dvojic je potřeba představit si sěrii lajn kolmých na dlouhou osu, které rozdělují tanečníky po dvou. CZ: 50
Perhaps another way of looking at a pair is that if the caller were to
call a 2-dancer call (such as Partner Tag or Right Roll To A Wave) the paired
dancers would (usually) be working with each other. EN: 60
Jiný způsob, jak se dívat na dvojici je ten, že kdyby caller řekl nějakou figuru pro dva tanenčíky (např. Partner Tag nebo Right Roll To A Wav), tanečníci ve dvojici by (ve většině případů) pracovali spolu. CZ: 60
With this understanding of a pair in mind, we now look at Grand
Working. For Grand Working, each dancer within the overall formation
selects a 4-spot sub-formation in which to work. This 4-spot sub-formation
consists of the 2 spots in the dancer's pair and the 2 spots in an adjacent
pair, which is determined by the given direction. EN: 90
Each dancer who is in a Center pair
works within the 4-spot sub-formation that includes the 2 spots in their pair,
and the 2 spots occupied by the nearest pair of dancers that exist toward the
given direction. Each of these dancers must individually
determine in which 4-spot sub-formation they are to work. The determination is
done relative to their own facing direction or to their own position within the
overall formation. EN: 110
When the overall formation is a 1 x {n},
the sub-formations consist of 1 x 4s; when the overall formation is a
2 x {n}, the sub-formations
consist of 2 x 2s. EN: 120
Each dancer who is in a Center pair works with the spots in their
pair and the spots in an adjacent pair such that they are a
Center, an End, a Beau, a Belle, a
Leader, or a Trailer, respectively, of the 4-spot
sub-formation. EN: 160
To determine with which pair to work, imagine each Outside pair
as a single dancer, and draw a single imaginary ellipse that goes
through each of the dancers in the Center pairs and also through
the Outside pairs (e.g., similar to the Circulate path from
Columns). Each dancer who is in a Center pair works with the
adjacent pair that is Clockwise or Counter Clockwise
to them on that imaginary ellipse. EN: 210
Dancers in the Outside pairs only have one sub-formation in which they
can work: they must work with the spots in their pair and the spots
occupied by the adjacent pair. EN: 230
Identify the spots that you are working with, not the
dancers. Some of the dancers occupying your spots may be working
within a different set of spots. EN: 240
After identifying the four spots, do the call as if you were working with
those 3 dancers. Do not re-evaluate who you are working with during the call. EN: 250
In most cases, there are several ways to specify the same Grand
Working call. For example, from a R-H Tidal Wave, Grand Working Right
is the same as Grand Working As Ends. From Columns, Grand Working
Forward is the same as Grand Working As Trailers. It is up to the
caller's discretion to use an appropriate name. EN: 260
