Twizzle Sticks

Back to Uptown dances

History:

Another from our original repertoire, by Dave Seibert. Sticking derived from the dance Froggy.

Tune:

Bampton Webley Twizzle

Implements:

Long Sticks

Distinctive Figure:

Face partners. Sticking as follows: / left , left / backhand , , / forehand , forehand / right , , / fore , , /back , , / left , left / fore , back / right , right / fore , , / In the above, left means forehand to the person across the set and to your left, right is backhand to the person across the set to your right, and "," is a rest or pause. The distinctive figure does not repeat between verses, unless it is being danced at the same time as the Bampton hankie dance. End all up.
