Friday Nights . . . join the movement! Dancefloor, chill space and special treats. Sway to the melody, in and out, across and above the tempos, genres and continents, whether in a state of suspended freefall or locked in the groove like a cog in the music.
Come early for the inspired interlude of moving meditation, or come later and find yourself in the rhythm of the beats.
Schedule This Friday, Jan 9:
8:15 - 9pm. The Alchemy of Embodiment, with guided moving meditation and jam by David Garrett of BodyMind Alchemy.
9 - 11pm. Leave your shoes and week at the door...and just feel the groove. |  |

Contra Dancing, also called Traditional New England Folk dancing, involves couples dancing in two facing lines while following the directions of the
dance caller. Each dance is about 10 minutes long, after which everyone changes partners. Nils Fredland will call to the music of New England-based Crowfoot - Adam Broome, Jaige Trudel and Nicholas Williams on Sunday, January 11 at 7pm. Beginners are welcome and invited to arrive by 6:40 for an introductory lesson. Come alone or bring lots of friends. Wear dance shoes or clean, non-marking soft-soled shoes to save the floor and your feet. It is a fragrance-free event - no perfumes or scented after-shave, please. Snack potluck during the break around 8:30. For more information call 831-464-0877 or email paul@santacruzdance.org. |  |
