Devised 18/10/2015. 2015 was the diamond jubilee of the formation of the Johnsonville club, as best we can tell. Teaching Note: In La Spirale, the cast of 1M and 2W should be tight else the covering will be lost.
Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (8). A yellow background means a recording with one of the recommended tunes but a non-standard number of repetitions. Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.
