Come and learn traditional dances with live music. No partner needed. Contra dancing is a series of repeated patterns with its roots in folk dancing going back to Jane Austen’s time and beyond; it is also related to Irish ceili dancing and American square dancing. Our dances are great for beginners, as there is no footwork to learn. The caller goes through each dance with us before the music begins, then “calls” the dance with the music, telling us what to do next. No problem if you get mixed up — other dancers can help you. Bring a friend or come alone; there are always plenty of people to dance with! Children are welcome with parental supervision. The easiest dances are at the beginning of the evening. Casual dress and snug footwear are encouraged. Free, but donations welcome. First Saturday of the month, but check the calendar for location. It’s great fun!
