====== Charlotte's Web ====== {{page>:dances:border:charlottes-web-description}} ===== Detailed Description ===== ==== Chorus ==== The first part of the chorus is done in "triangles". The "first triangle" is dancers #1, #4 and #5. The "second triangle" is dancers #2, #3, and #6. Beats 1-2: On beat 1, first triangles toss in a triangle. #1 tosses to #5, #5 tosses to #4, and #4 tosses to #1. Second triangles reach behind themselves and clash with the ground on beat 1. Beats 3-4: First triangles clash behind themselves on the ground (beat 3) while second triangles clash with each other in a "basket" (also beat 3) Beats 5-6: same as beats 1-2. Beats 7-8: same as beats 3-4. Beats 9-10: First triangles pass through the center with a clash on beat 9, ending up one place clockwise around the triangle. I.e., #1 ends up in #4's place, #4 ends up in #5's place, and #5 ends up in #1's place. Beats 11-12: Second corners pass through the center with a clash on beat 11, ending up one place clockwise around the triangle. I.e., #2 ends up in #6's place, #6 ends up in #3's place, and #3 ends up in #2's place. Beats 13-16: everyone spins twice over their "teflon" ("non-stick" or left) shoulder to advance one place clockwise around the circle. At this point, everyone has done the equivalent of a corner crossing. Repeat the chorus, noting that the old first triangles are now second triangles, and the old second triangles are now first triangles. At the end of the repeat, the dancers are back in their original places. ==== Figures ==== {{page>dances:border:figures:asterisk-on}} {{page>dances:border:figures:basket}} {{page>dances:border:figures:there-and-back}} {{page>dances:border:figures:basket}} {{page>dances:border:figures:grand-right-left}} {{page>dances:border:figures:basket}} {{page>dances:border:figures:egg-beaters}} {{page>dances:border:figures:basket}} {{page>dances:border:figures:wake-up-and-off}} ===== Video ===== {{youtube>zSMMB0WINQM?large}} ===== Tune ===== {{page>:dances:border:charlottes-web-tune}}
