Gender Neutral Contra Dance

  • Veterans Memorial Building, downtown Santa Cruz 846 Front Street Santa Cruz, CA 95060 United States (map)

Contra Dance is an American folk tradition similar to Square Dance, only we dance in long lines to live music! Come alone, with a partner or with friends. There is a Caller who teaches each new dance and prompts the moves throughout the dance. Then you thank this partner and ask someone new to dance :) Experienced dancers will often ask new folks to dance, to help them learn the ropes. The music is often Irish Jigs and Reels, Klezmer, Old-Time, Bluegrass or something else! Bring your dance shoes, a water bottle and perhaps something to share at the break/snack.

Lesson at 5:40pm Dancing at 6:00pm
