Dabke Qamrosh -دبكة (Lebanon)

This is a simple Dabke variation taught to me by Ann Kyle. She learned the dance in Camrose Alberta, thus we've labelled this Dabke Qamrosh.

Open circle, "glu glu" position, fingers interdigitated forearm to forearm, arms bent at elbow. Forearm is parallel to the floor.

Notes by Andrew Carnie, April 2008

Moving LOD, cross L over R (1), step R (2), cross L over R (3), step R (4), touch L front (5), touch L side (6)

Variation: Step L (1), hop on L (&), step R (2), (3-6 same).
