Here, here!  I learned both of these years ago, along with others, but
these two are the ones I still remember.  Dancing Hole-in-the-Wall at a
demo, where Titus and I were both fighting, we kept knocking knee and
elbow cups when the men cross over.  The crowd loved it, two left footed
fighters in the graceful dancing.  As for Strip the Willow, if done with
enthusiasm, the lady need never touch the ground as she's twirled down
the line.  Ask my wife.
