An invitation to...
Par-ti-ci-pate in Life
For example, dance with us, even if you think you cannot!
New dancers welcome! No need to BYO Partner.
And did we mention how FUN it is? Some of us get sore cheeks from smiling so hard!
Open to the public:
a contra dance on most Sundays, on one of the best dance floors anywhere (although we are temporaily relocated due to renovations).
an English Country dance in Santa Barbara on Wednesdays and an experienced ECD on one Sunday per month.
an English Country dance in Ventura generally on the first Sunday of each month.
A typical Sunday evening event includes mostly contra dances (what's that?), maybe a circle mixer and some traditional square dances, two waltzes and another couple dance.
The English Country dances (what's that?) feature dances in a variety of formations, tempos, moods, etc., published as early as the 17th century and as late as today. Every so often we like to dress up in period garb.
