Penelope Weinberger, a nearly 10 year contra caller from the Washington DC area, is here to create, perpetuate, and facilitate joy on the dance floor. Penelope has called dances in 25 states and Canada.
All dances are taught; no partner or experience necessary.
If you are new to contra dancing, we recommend arriving at the beginning. Dances tend to start simple and increase in complexity as the evening progresses.
Masking or testing for COVID is no longer required, unless Dane County's CDC hospital admission level is high or red. If it is red or high, participants must either wear an effective mask - N95, KN95, KF94 - or have a negative self-administered rapid antigen test after 5 pm on the day of the dance. We will notify the dance community if it's yellow or red.
Please do not attend if you are having symptoms of respiratory illness.
Send us a message if you're interested in getting involved, or have general questions, concerns, or feedback about our dances.
