Challenging Contra Dance

The challenging contra has been suspended due to lack of dancers.

Next Dance:   CANCELLED 7:30 to 10:30pm

This is a dance session for those who are already experienced folk, contra or square dancers.  There is no beginners class, and the session is NOT suitable for beginners.

Cost will be £4 with free refreshments.

The venue is St Katherine's Priory, Exeter. Directions here.

The style will still be American and fast, though there may be a greater proportion of squares.  As well as mind-stretching dances I will be looking at patter called contras and gender benders.  Don’t know what they are?  Come along and find out!

As with the contra, we will be using recorded music.

There will be a short interval for tea / coffee at around 9:15.  Water, tea and coffee will be available but there is no bar.
