Official Bransle (Toss the Duchess) Dance

Last night your favorite author learned the steps for the "Branle de l'Official" dance aka Toss the Duchess. Apparently some men were a bit over zealous with tossing - it was not unheard of to hit one's head on the ceiling or perhaps end up on the floor. We also practiced the Rufty Tufty - the steps are easy, it's putting everything in the right order that's a challenge!
