Contra dance is a kind of social dance with live music where a caller teaches the figures.  You don't need to come with a partner, and while there is a short lesson before each of our dances it's optional.  Most people learn contra dancing by doing it. It looks like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=beOFeIIk4KY You should wear comfortable clothes that you can move easily in.  High heels don't work well.  We'll have water but if you'd like to save cups bringing a water bottle is good.

What I will be teaching you, you already know. All of us have a body in which we experience and interact with life. But have you ever thought about how our body is really just the house for our soul? Inside us reside the images and narratives of who we are- everything that has ever happened to us. The idea behind my original creation, Fusion-Improvisation, is that if we can engage and refine the vessel we call body, there is no limit to how we can reveal our souls. When we are skilled with our b …
