OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

4 ladies promenade, the inside of the ring
Pass your partner, allemande left, come back and swing
Put her on the right and circle left around you will go
Left allemande, weave the ring like a right & left grand
Oh ma, he wants to marry me
Dosado your honey bee, promenade
Promenade around you see, oh now he's making eyes at me
Momma he's swinging me


FIGURE    Mainstream - SSD Week 5, corner progression

1 & 3 go forward up and back with you
Square thru 4 hands around to the outside two
1/2 square thru, partner trade and then
Forward up and back to the land, slide thru and swing her man
Allemande left that corner, come back to dosado
Back to back then promenade
Every minute he gets bolder, now he's leaning on my shoulder
Ma, he's swinging me
