IT'S PRIDE MONTH, BABES! Bring your rainbow self and all your friends and let's churn up all the queer joy on the dance floor 🤩 It's also the last dance of the season, so come get your remix on before we take a break for the summer.
We continue to have a steady influx of new folks so keep bringing all your friends and continue to spread the good word so we can fill up the hall with even more of our friends and new friends we haven't met yet!
Here is what you'll find on this page:
1. About Us & Basic event details

1. About Us & Basic Event Details:
Dancing the third Sunday of the month, Sept-May: Contra Remix is a queer loving, inter-generational dance series that focuses on ecstatic, joyful dance connection and asking everyone in our community to own the culture we each create. Anyone who can get down with this is welcome. Gender neutral terms are used when teaching and calling dances. No fragrances - especially mint!
Date: June 21st
Location: Norse Hall - Upstairs Ballroom
Time: Intro & warm up @ 6:30. 7:00-10:00 is the main dance.
Payment Methods: Cash, Venmo, or PayPal only. No Credit Cards.
Admission: $6-20, MASK REQUIRED
Sliding scale:
2-4 dances helping cover the admission table (contact us)
$6-10 Capitalism pays you less, so you pay less.
$11-15 Will cover rent and pay performers
$16-20 balances out the unfairness of capitalism for folks who need to pay less.
Pub social after: Hungry Tiger or RonToms outdoor patio area in the back.

2. Covid & Public health culture:
- We are still long-covid coping in our personal lives and Covid is still out there causing problems, so Masks are required at our events. Wear a well-fitted (no gaps) N-95, K-N95, or surgical mask with a cloth mask cover to create a sealed fit.
- Do not attend events if you are contagious with anything or hung out with someone you know was contagious w/o masking that week. Not sure if you're contagious - Ask a nurse friend, www.google.com, or stay home. :)
- Let us know if you have symptoms of Covid-19, RSV, or Flu 1-3 days after an event. Then, please be extra sweet to yourself.
- Wash your hands!

3. Community Agreements:
This is a queer loving space that supports the expression, exploration, and rejection of gender & sex identities. The terms used to identify partnered positioning in our dance are Larks and Robins. No mint products are allowed at this dance. We are other fragrances-free as well. Entering this dance space, we ask that you agree to to the following cultural practices:
1. To practice taking care of yourself to the best of your own current capacity.
2. To practice taking care of each other - especially on the dance floor.
3. To practice consent in dancing, asking for support, resolving injury, and seeking repair.
4. To practice saying “no” and “yes” in ways that both support your well-being & don’t harm others.
5. To practice being okay with screwing something up & allowing yourself and others to be imperfect - on and off the dance floor.
This is a living artifact that reflects the current agreements of the organizers and active community members and is subject to negotiation - except for the no mint.

4. Community Support Needed:
- Spread the word! We rely on you to make sure word spreads like a double rainbow across the sky.
- Door volunteers: Ya’ll know, and we’ve appreciated your support making sure Jaydra doesn't have to do all the door work alone. Noah usually gets paid as talent, but neither of us get paid to organize this shindig, so please continue to support Jaydra also getting to enjoy the evening. You can also pay for your dance by doing a door shift for 1-3 dances. Most valuable times to support are during the lesson and first half hour of dance, and at the end for cleanup and un-decorating.
