Mary,
This doesn't really answer your question, but I think it is important to bring
up.
Please try to avoid gendered pronouns. As a male person who often dances The
Raven role, one thing I really appreciate is a caller who doesn't use gendered
pronouns regardless of the terms being used.
Hi Mary,
The important thing, I think, is that you communicate something along the
following lines: "Contra dance is divided into two roles, so that sometimes
half the people dancing do one thing while the other half do something
different. Otherwise, the two dance roles are nearly identical,
I call in primarily a traditional dance community but am investigating
starting to call using larks and ravens. I am curious about what words you
use and how you teach larks and ravens positioning. Thanks.
