Devised by Lara Friedman-Shedlov in 2005 in an attempt to create a dance with three types of rights and
lefts. Lefse is a round flatbread of Norwegian origin, traditionally made of a potato-based dough and
baked on a griddle. It is quite popular in Minnesota, which has many people of Scandanavian descent.
Wild rice is native to the Minnesota wetlands and traditionally cultivated by its native people.  

"Although unorthodox, it has been noted that this progression technically will work as an 8x40 dance in traditional 4-couple longwise set, with the 1st couple stepping down to 4th place after the 2nd repetition. Since 8x40 jig recordings are a lot easier to come by than 3x40, feel free to dance it this way. Music for "The Express" was recommended by at least one person who tried this."
