The branle Double is found in Orchesography by Thoinot Arbeau. It is one of the quatre branles.

Steps Used

Choreography

As with all branles, this dance is performed in a line of people holding hands or, if enough people are present, a circle. It is not necessary for the dancers to be paired into partners.

This is the easiest dance in the world.

Variations

In place of the last two steps of the double right, three quick kicks can be inserted. This is a divided movement.
