Monday Night Folk Dances
with Live Music
Monday 16th November, Contra Dancing with
*As the Crow Flies*
**Don't miss 'the Crows! It's been a while since they've played for us. They are 3 of the grooviest fiddlers (+/- Isaac possibly the most versatile bass-player) playing cool, trad and contemporary fiddle tunes, many self-written.
Many smiles and a good workout!
First and third Mondays of each month, Feb-Dec (except Easter) and some 2nd Mondays
Usually Contra Dances with seriously good tunes and musos.
Sometimes French Balfolk Dances with inspiring French tunes and songs on fiddle, accordion and vocals by La Voie de Wallaby.
Occasional other special nights in other dance traditions, or with different bands.
Check https://folktas.org/monday for bands and extra dates.
7:15 for 7:30-9:30pm
St James Hall, 462 Elizabeth St, New Town (off Rupert Avenue just up the hill from Augusta Rd, enter behind church)
Contra dancing is moderately aerobic and highly addictive. It’s a lively, social, swingy dance style from the USA. Done to simple walking steps, it features flowing movements, swings and twirls, and a chance to dance with everyone in the room.
Balfolk (French) folk dancing is lively and fun. Be inspired by wonderful music and joyful dances which David learned at Le Grand Bal de L'Europe at Gennetines in France, an amazing 14 day dance festival. Dances range from the the hypnotic Rondeau en couples to the athletic Le Danse de l’Ours (Bear Dance) and the sometimes chaotic Zelda.
Tickets: $7-16 at https://folktas.org/monday or at the door.
All dances taught.
No dancing experience or partner required.
All ages and identities welcome.
