About this Event
Join Brooklyn Contra for an evening of colonial era and modern folk dances to live music. All dances will be taught and appropriate for adults and kids 8 and up, no experience necessary!
Contra is an easy-to-learn folk dance (similar to square dancing with some swing dance flair) that comes with a free lesson and amazing live tunes! Originating in northern Appalachia based on English and French formal dances, contra is now danced around the country by multi-generational communities. Bringing a partner isn't necessary as folks switch partners between each dance.
Brooklyn Contra hosts bi-weekly dances at Camp Friendship in Park Slope. More information can be found at www.brooklyncontra.org
