Contra
 is the perfect social dance for new dancers. The beginners’ lesson at 
the start is all you need to enjoy your first evening of dancing. Contra
 dancing is a fun, easy-to-learn style of social dance in a supportive, 
inter-generational, inclusive community. It’s the cool cousin to square 
dancing—with hot live bands. A hot band is exactly what we have for this
 dance with&nbsp;Brooklyn Swing Ensemble playing amazing tunes with&nbsp;Alex Deis-Lauby&nbsp;calling.If&nbsp;you are new to contra dancing, come to our evening dance on any first&nbsp;and third Saturday evening. Knowing how to dance is not necessary since&nbsp;the caller prompts the moves and guides the dancers. A lesson is given&nbsp;at 7pm prior to the dance to learn basic terminology and some of the&nbsp;dance moves. It’s fine to come alone since folks switch partners between&nbsp;each dance. Pack plenty of smiles!
