OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 11
Join 8 hands, circle left go round that track
Left allemande, partner right, box the gnat
4 ladies walk the inside ring, once around
now hear me sing
Box the gnat, check in, weave the ring
It's the bird of paradise who really knows
Dosado, take her hand and promeno
*Does the lady like romancin', is she with you just for dancin'?
It's the bird of paradise who really knows
FIGURE Mainstream, R-H lady progression
1 & 3 lead to the right, circle 4
You make a line, dance up and back once more
Star thru in front of you, dive thru, pass thru
Right & left thru, turn the girl, eight chain 3
It's right, left, right, left allemande
Weave by one, swing the next there, when you can
*Promenade go round the ring, will the lady let you swing
It's the bird of paradise who really knows
