🎻 Head to the beautiful mountains of Ben Lomond to experience Contra Dancing! πŸ’ƒπŸ•Ί A contra dance event is a social dance that one can attend without a partner. The dancers form couples, and the couples form sets of two couples in long lines starting from the stage and going down the length of the dance hall. Throughout the course of a dance, couples progress up and down these lines, dancing with each other couple in the line. The dance is led by a caller who teaches the sequence of moves, called β€œfigures,” in the dance before the music starts. ✨ No partner? No experience? No problem! A brief beginner lesson gets everyone ready to dance, and all ages and skill levels are welcome. 🎢 Live music by Against the Grain (acoustic traditional folk music) 🎀 Caller: Cheryl Graubart πŸ‘Ÿ Easy-to-learn dances β€’ Comfortable shoes β€’ Lots of fun! πŸ•‘ Doors: 6:30 PM πŸ’ƒ Instruction: 7:00–7:30 PM 🎻 Dancing: 7:30–9:30 PM
