Calling Notes:

Not called as of 2019. Please contact Luke Donforth at calling.luke@gmail.com if you call this.

Another way of thinking of this is in the A2, men and women allemande left 1 & 1/2. In the B1, next women allemande right 2, next men allemande right 1 & 1/2. But these allemandes somethimes overlap and turn into stars.

A1/B2 phrase boundary is flexible.
