Caller: Becky Hill

Flatfooting Workshop:
All levels welcome, inc. "I've never heard of this before but I'd like to try!" Flatfooting is a percussive dance style traditional in Appalachia where a dancer's feet are used to make rhythms and sounds to old-time music (the same music used for our square dances). Suggested donation of $15-20 for Becky's time and travel.
Square Dance:
Beginner- and family-friendly! No partner necessary!
All dances are traditional Appalachian squares with a live band and caller with gender neutral calls. Dances are taught and all are welcome.
Bring your own drinks, inc. water, and something for the potluck if you'd like.
There will be an open old-time jam before the dance from 7-8 so feel free to come early and bring instruments or just listen!
$15 suggested donation at the door to cover the cost of the space and pay our musicians and caller. No one will be turned away for lack of funds! Children 12 & under are free.
