Join us for fun, energetic dances with great live string-band music!
All dances are taught by our callers and we provide a welcoming environment for new dancers.
No partner or experience is necessary. Contra Dancing is the American descendant of
English Country Dancing and has figures similar to those from square dancing
(swing, do-si-do, etc). Please bring an additional pair of clean, soft-soled shoes
and refrain from wearing perfume or cologne.
