HILTON ROUNDS

Round Dancers learn to associate each foot pattern with the figure name. This makes it easier to teach future routines since the dancer has a repertoire of figures at their disposal.

No, dancers rely on a cuer to guide them through the figures in each routine, thereby eliminating the need to memorize the dance patterns.  The cuer calls out the name of each figure in the routine just before it is to be executed.

This type of dancing eliminates the traffic jam feeling that you sometimes get while free form ballroom dancing.  Dancers are able to concentrate more on how they are executing figures and dancing as opposed to trying to think about which figure or pattern to do next.
