Details
If you’re new to English Country dance, just show up about 20 minutes before the dance and we will teach you the basic patterns (and be sure you have an experienced partner to help you learn). Our admission fee is sliding scale – you can pay more than the suggested prices to provide additional support to this dance series, or less if that’s what works for you. Click here to see our current COVID policy. Very occasionally we have to cancel a dance on short notice, so we urge you to check our web site before you travel.
Caller
Richard Sauvain
Richard is the founder of Rochester’s current English dance series. His clear and persistent vision, quietly developed with his elegant, urbane style, is singularly responsible for the strong English Country Dance program Rochester has today. Beloved by all, his calling is always a pleasure to dance to.
