We sponsor community social dancing in the contra and English country styles twice weekly in the Rochester area.
All dances are taught by the caller, and you don’t have to bring a partner.
Our dances are participatory, open to all, with live music, smoke-free and alcohol-free.
Newcomers are always welcome. Arrive 20 minutes early for brief beginner lessons. Join us!
