two columns

OPENER - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Keep on the sunny side, always on the sunny side
Keep on the sunny side of life
It will help us every day, it will brighten all the way
If we keep on the sunny side of life

Four ladies chain, chain back home, promenade
It will help us every day, it will brighten all the way
If we keep on the sunny side of life


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

All four couples promenade halfway
Heads right & left thru, back away
Sides touch 1/4, boys run, right & left thru
Pass thru, trade by, touch 1/4, scoot back
Swing the corner, promenade
It will help us every day, it will brighten all the way
If we keep on the sunny side of life


MIDDLE BREAK    Mainstream

Circle left
Keep on the sunny side, always on the sunny side
Keep on the sunny side of life

Allemande left your corner, dosado your own
Men star left in the middle of the ring
Meet your partner, turn thru, find the corner lady
Allemande left, come back and promenade
It will help us every day, it will brighten all the way
If we keep on the sunny side of life
