A Boston-based contra dance band, NORTHWOODS features Casey Murray (guitar, cello, banjo), Molly Tucker (fiddle), and Sam Zakon-Anderson (keyboard). They bring a “seamless blend of unstoppable groove, infectious melodies, and boundless energy to the dance floor” and approach “contra dance music with a balance of tradition and innovation.” Hailing from Vermont, ADINA is an experienced caller from Maine known for her clear, precise style that makes dancing a delight.

- We want our dance to be fun and inclusive.
- Our policy is based on the guidelines written by Friends of Greenfield Dance http://www.friendsofgreenfielddance.org/resources/safe-dancing-etiquette/
- When someone asks you to dance, you can choose to say “Yes” or “No thank you,” no explanation needed. If "No," let them ask you next time.
- Before you dance with your partner, discuss your role preferences and physical preferences/limitations.
- Dance in a way that’s comfortable for your partner and neighbors. Respect other peoples' boundaries.
- Flourishes should be invited, not forced. You may reject a flourish that’s uncomfortable.

- Dance ambassadors will be available to support new dancers.
- Our dance is alcohol, drug, and smoke free.
