Everyone who attended last time had a blast and wanted to do it again!
•Learn fun and easy Contra Dance at the Irish Cultural Center in Phoenix.
NO experience and NO partner is needed!
•Show up about 6:15 to pay $10 cash and visit before the free lesson.
FREE lesson at 6:30 pm sharp. Dances start at 7 pm.
•There's a 'caller' and a live band.
•They teach each move and practice it a few times before starting each dance. There are seasoned/experienced and patient Contra dancers that will take the lead, making it super easy and fun to learn.
•Wear comfortable shoes and clothes.
Soft soled, non-scuffing dance shoes are appropriate.
•Bringing your own water bottle is appreciated.
•Ladies, it's fun to wear "spinney" skirts or dresses.
