To clarify, the group of dancers I’ve been working with at Pinewoods has been a mix of
older dancers who are new to this terminology as well as younger dancers who have been
promoting the change.

Lisa, thanks for sharing your observations.
Seattle and Portland, OR dances seem to be moving to Larks and Robins as well. My next
Portland dance on Aug 24th will be Larks and Robins. Not all dances are gender neutral
terms at this point, but we do announce which terms will be used.

the sound system. They overwhelmingly prefer Larks and Robins.
