Contra dancing is a modernized American folk dance, using easy walking steps, set to exciting, LIVE New England, Celtic, and Quebecois folk music.
Dance with a partner and other couples, then change partners. A caller teaches the sequence of moves and prompts you during the dance, making it accessible to all. No experience necessary!
Do you play an instrument? Bring it, and sit in with the band!
Free snacks will be provided.
Come alone or bring friends!
Website lists Tuesdays later in semester.
