Hi Allison,
I recommend the 18th century dance Swiss Allemande. Historical note: Swiss Allemande and Allemande Swiss were two different tunes, and multiple dances were written to both of them. The dance below was published by the dancing master Benjamin Walker in 1784. More information is available on my blog at

Swiss Allemande Proper Triple Minor Walker 1784
The (Ladies/Ravens/First Line/People Facing The Door) take hands and the first (whatever) leads their line around the other three people and back to place
The (Gents/Larks/Second Line/People Facing The Windows) do the same
First couple down the center, return and cast off one place
All clap (own hands, right hand with partner, own hands, left hands with partner, own, right, own, left), two hand turn with partner
At the start of the next time through the dance the former second (whatever) is likely to have to run to catch up with the two people in their new minor set. Let the dancers know in advance that this is likely to happen, and that it's part of the fun of the dance.
