Contra Dancing

Try something new for exercise and fun! Contra dance is a simple form of folk dancing. Couples (no need to bring a partner), form a set with another couple in long lines. Couples progress up and down these lines, dancing with other couples in the line. A caller teaches the sequence of moves. Since there is no required footwork, many people find contra dance easier than other forms of social dancing. If you can walk, you can contra dance! Music includes Irish, Scottish, old-time, bluegrass, French-Canadian folk tunes, etc. Please wear shoes that won’t mark the floor.
