Contra Dance Sacramento February 14, 2009

Join the Sacramento Country Dance Society on Saturday, February 14 for a rousing and fun CONTRA DANCE featuring Warren Blier and Hot Cider (Rudy Darling, Barry Angell, Ken Nilsson, and Mark Botic).

Contra Dance is an old-time community dance where couples face each other in longs lines up and down the dance floor and dance with every other couple in line. Dances are done to live music, generally Celtic reels or jigs. You DON'T need a partner to contra dance and you don't even have to know how to dance! We provide a free 1/2 hour lesson prior to each dance. Steps are simple with emphasis on patterns rather than fancy footwork and a cller gives cues during the dance alerting dancers to their next moves. Dancing is easy to learn and beginners are always welcome!

Donation is $10 adults/$5 FULL TIME STUDENTS WITH ID only/$25 families. For more information call Laura or John at 916-739-6014 or email SactoCDS@yahoo.com
