Down by the Riverside

by Melanie Axel-Lute
Fairly easy --- 3 facing 3

A1	(8) Lines of 3 forward and back (towards other trio) (8) Do-si-do opposite
A2	(16) Center people turn contra corners
B1	(8) Two-hand turn with opposite until on original side (8) Circle six halfway
B2	(16) Basket swing (in trios) and open out to face original direction

Set up like a contra line, ones facing down and twos facing up, except that everyone has two partners. Can also be done in a Sicilian circle.
A new person can end up in the center position after the basket swing.
Contra corners is actually an easy move in this situation.
I wrote this dance for the New York City genderfree dance group, which at the time was meeting at Riverside Church. It's also useful for dances with a gender imbalance.
