This class explores the elegance and community spirit of English Country Dance, with graceful patterns and lively rhythms from 17th–19th century England. Dancers learn basic figures, formations, and footwork in longways sets and circles, accompanied by lyrical traditional music. No partner or experience required. Comfortable indoor shoes and a water bottle recommended. Use the skills learned to enjoy 2nd Friday monthly dances in Missoula and our 2nd spring English Country ball*, "Jane Austen's night out!"

* The course description does not mention a Ball because they're not sponsoring it but we are!

Please wear comfortable indoor shoes and bring a water bottle.
