Contra dancing is an energetic folk dance and a great way to meet new people. Beginners absolutely welcome. Live music. Snacks provided. You don't need to bring a partner -- just show up, and people will ask you to join in. All dances are taught, and the music is full of energy -- it gets you moving!

This month’s dance features music from a hot new folk band of Yale students — “Pitnacree” — with two fiddles, cittern, whistle, upright bass, and piano. Dances will be taught by one of the best young callers in the contradance scene: Michael Hamilton, from Akron OH.
Hope to see you there!
