Contra Dances
Hillsboro, VA
Bluemont Concert Series, Contra Dances at the Old Stone School in Hillsboro will be held January 21, February 18, March 17, April 21, and May 19.
The dance workshop begins at 7:30 p.m. and the Contra dance at 8:00 p.m. Contra Dancing is a popular form of partnered folk dance usually danced in two facing lines. The music is provided by a live band playing traditional music. A caller instructs the dancers in the steps for each dance.

In the dance workshops prior to the dances the Caller teaches beginner dancers the basic steps.
