Contra dancing is aerobic and social. Everyone finds a partner and forms longways sets. The caller teaches each dance, and then the band plays old-time reels and jigs. Dancing continues without interruption for 5 or 10 minutes. An evening also includes squares, mixers, and waltzes. Dress comfortably, bring a personal water bottle, and carry clean shoes that slide but don't slip. Our goal is to create a friendly and welcoming community of new and experienced dancers. First Saturdays October through May.
