Galaxy Eights

[livejournal.com profile] cuyahogarvr and I are just back from dancing C1 with Billy Harrison's Galaxy Eights group (inc. [livejournal.com profile] meinfs!) in Columbia, MD. Alas, [livejournal.com profile] kent4str was calling for the Chesapeake Squares ce soir so he couldn't join us but I'm sure he would have enjoyed it too.

Billy took us through a lot of interlocked wave-based/tandem-based triangles. It was fairly hair-raising at first --there is no good circulate pattern for many of these set-ups-- but we were getting it pretty well after a couple of tips. His impromptu review of counter-rotate was a welcome addition too.

No dancing tomorrow night, but I'm calling Plus/Advanced for the DC Lambda Squares on Thursday, right after our DC Diamond Circulate 2009 meeting.
