Olympia Contra Dance Meetup

Contra dancing is equal parts exercise, socializing, great live music and fun. It is great for singles, couples and families.

All dances are taught by a caller. Many of the moves may be familiar from square dancing (do-si-do, swing your partner).

Come join in on the 1st, 2nd and 4th Saturdays of the month, at the South Bay Grange. There is a lesson for beginners at 7:00; the dance is from 7:30 to 10:30, with a break about halfway through.

Admission: Sliding Scale $9-15; $7 For Students And Seniors (65 And Older)

Google "contra dancing" if you want to see what it is like. The dances are partnered. The custom is to change partners for each individual dance (about every 10-15 minutes). 

Hope you can join us!
