Rhythms
We have used the following labels for our teaching dances. Dances with the labels 4-1, 4-2, etc. can be used to teach the phase IV figures in round dancing. See the list of new figures to see what new figures are added in each dance. They will contain at least one phase IV figure but will not contain any higher level figure. However, the first couple of dances in most cases are phase III+1 or III+2 dances. For example, the foxtrot 4-1 & 4-2 dances are III+2 dances. At the same time the foxtrot 5-1 & 5-2 dances are IV+1 dances.
We have finished writing teaching dances for all the rhythms. However, we will be adding review dances and alternate dances in the future.
The format and abbreviations used in writing these dances can be found on the Roundalab web site. www.roundalab.org
