Intro Level Singing Call Figures
Rich Reel 24 Sep 2000

How do I read this? In the list below, each line going across has a complete 64 beat figure.
When a line appears indented, calls are shared in common with a line above it.
Use the first call(s) from the nearest line(s) above it that have calls starting from the left hand side.

The symbols: H-
and S-
mean Heads or Sides.
When H- means Heads,
S- means Sides (first two figures)
When H- means Sides,
S- means Heads (last two figures)
Be aware that at beginning level, dancers typically are not dancing every call with the correct timing.
You'll want to vary portions of the figure based on how well the dancers are keeping up.
