No Jive

Choreographed by Lana Harvey
Description: 32 count, 2 wall line/contra dance
Music: "High Lonesome Sound" by Vince Gill; "I'm A Cowboy" by
Smokin' Armadillos
/This dance was originally choreographed for our dance team as a
partner dance to go with Neil Hale's Cowboy Hand Jive, thus the
title, No Jive. To do it that way, do two patterns of Cowboy
Hand Jive and one of No Jive. It will stand perfectly well on
its own or as a Contra Line dance.

alternating facing front and back. You will cross lines on 13-16
and back again on 21-24. You should end in single line on 32.
You will still be alternating front and back but each dancer is
facing the opposite direction they did in first pattern when
they do the second pattern. On third pattern they will be facing
original direction.
