Dances

Traditional dance with live music for school, church and community groups (libraries, Scouts, senior citizen centers). Available as workshops, classes, residencies, barn dances, birthdays and balls, and for everything from fund raisers and celebrations to library and historical society presentations. We tailor each program to meet the needs of the group.

Country (or Barn) Dance - New England Country dancing (also known as contras & squares) has been danced in New England town halls and communities for over 200 years. The caller does a walk-through for each dance before the music starts, and prompts ("calls") the dance while the music is playing.

Colonial/18th Century Dance - Experience a piece of history! - As danced in George Washington's time. Available in authentic period clothing. Walk-throughs and prompts for each dance (see Country/Barn Dance).
