Longways duple minor progressive dance for as many as will

---

Hands 4 from the top to determine duple minor sets.

–

First corners turn (CW) by R hands, Tops (CCW) by L, second corners (CCW) by L, Bottoms (CW) by R.

Notice that Odds always change hands while Evens never change hands.

–

Slipping circle (CW) to L for 8 counts to get home (all the way around)

Clap your own hands together, R with partner, together, L with partner, cast to progress with tops casting down outside of bottoms who cast up (Eggbeater turns).

Longways duple minor progressive for as many as will

---

Shoulder to shoulder with partner (by R), Back to back with partner (by R)

Shoulder to shoulder with neighbor (by R), Back to back with neighbor (by R)

–

2 hand turn CW with neighbor 1-½ to exchange, R hand turn with partner to neighbor’s place

Tops (at bottom) skip figure 8 up through bottoms, evens ahead of odds.

Bottoms (at top) skip figure 8 down through tops, evens ahead of odds.

–

Repeat with new duple minor set.

Double cast variation:

While Tops are skipping figure 8 up, Bottoms turn up the set to cast away from each other (Eggbeater Up) and follow their neighbor through the figure 8 pattern, staying one position behind their neighbor, and ending where they started the figure 8.

While Bottoms are skipping figure 8 down, Tops turn down the set to cast away from each other (Eggbeater Down) and follow their neighbor through the figure 8 pattern, staying one position behind their neighbor, and ending where they started the figure 8.
