East Bay Square Dance with Robin Fischer, Round Top Stringband

Caller Robin Fischer is back in March! Round Top Stringband plays upbeat fiddle tunes. The caller teaches each dance right before we dance it. No partner necessary; no experience necessary. Kids welcome.

This is a queer-friendly event. Role-switching is encouraged. The caller uses the terms "ladies" and "gents" to refer to dance roles; these terms can refer to anyone who is dancing in that role.

Wear dance shoes if you have them! No stiletto heels allowed.
