Contra Dance for All
Arthur L. Anger , Larry Stone
Tue Jan 9, Tue Jan 23, 08-10:30pm, Lobdell
No enrollment limit, no advance sign up
Participants welcome at individual sessions (series)
Prereq: none
Join us for two evenings of Contra Dance, a traditional American form of folk dancing, directed by a caller and accompanied by exciting live music. During IAP we'll make it especially accessible to beginners. Contra Dancing uses easy-to-learn walking steps. You dance with a partner, changing partners each dance, in a line of couples called a 'set' and interacting with your partner and all the other couples. A caller first explains each dance in a 'walk-through' and then continues to prompt you during the dance. No partner is needed. Come by yourself or bring friends! Light refreshments served at the break halfway through.
These dances are part of a continuing series of dances on the Second and Fourth Tuesday of every month, so you can continue to enjoy them once you're hooked.
