This is a nice dance.

I think I'll call it tonight.

(For timing, I just mark down give and take to a swing as 16 beats, but timing for that move is a personal preference, I believe).

Best,
Ron Blechner

Hi, all!

Thanks to all those who responded about this dance. Both Bob Isaacs and Chris Page don’t recognize the dance as already written so I think we’re good to go. Would love to hear how it goes if you decide to call it. The title is not a typo. The 2nd word is a play on words as a combination of robin+orbit.

I changed the choreography slightly in B1. I teach the “give and take” as a ring balance, followed by the ladies drawing their Partner across the set. As such, I’ve changed the timing to (4) and (12) rather than how I had it originally as (8) and (8). That was just an oversight on my part when I originally posted the dance.

Hi, all,

I wrote a dance recently and called it over the weekend and it was well received. Would like to see if anyone knows if it’s already written. Thanks.
