I'm not sure dancers will appreciate being called "slithy toves," though we have been looking for new terms to use to describe dancers in different positions. Perhaps the other position could be "mome raths" as in:

All mimsy were the borogoves,

      And the mome raths outgrabe.

Raths and toves?

I love this!  And it has a playful kind of sound, despite its technical origin. :-) reminds me of jabberwocky somehow...
