It’s a one off so far, but a 2nd dance is in the diary and it will hopefully
become a regular series.

Lead/Follow: Hampshire College, Contradelphia
Thanks Nick!

I know several dance series use gender-free terms:
Jets/Rubies: Portland ME
Lead/Follow: Hampshire College, Contradelphia [defunct?]
Bands/Bare-arms: JP, Western MA
Larks/ Ravens: Circle Left, South Bay
Does anyone know of other dances that are gender free, and what terms they use?

Dave, Andrea,and Yoyo,
My apologies, you are absolutely correct. I somehow confused "Boys from
Urbana" with another dance. The two dances are very similar, and the
untitled dance could easily be considered a variation of "Boys from
Urbana".

I agree with Andrea and Yoyo that this dance is very similar to Boys from
Urbana, enough certainly to qualify as a variation of the same dance.
Literally the only difference is that there's a 1/2 gents allemenade after
the progression in Boys from Urbana. And this one starts at a different
spot

Yoyo,
I do not consider this dance and Boys from Urbana variations of the same
dance. I would have no trouble calling this dance to start off an evening,
but Urbana is much more difficult.
Where are your concerns with timing and flow? The only difference I see is
that there are 8 beats available

I have it as a variation of Berkeley Bind by Erik Hoffman. Long lines
instead of a full circle Left. If it's actually something else I'd love
to give it correct credit.

Thanks for the clarification. I have a gig this dance would be perfect for
on Saturday. Will give it a go.

I don't understand the point of "Gents wait for them" in the note. Seems to
me that just puts the guys in the way of the ladies' allemande. Instead I'd
expect that gents back out while ladies go forward would make for better
flow.
