Mountain Vegans (MV) is a Meet-up group for all adults, but this event is for members and their guests including teens and middle schoolers. YOU DO NOT NEED A PARTNER! All Thursday contra dances are Fun, but I am posting for this Thursday because I've kNOWN the Musicians since 1985 and they are GREAT. Instructions are provided at 7:30 with excellent instruction- brand new folks should be present for that (I'll be there to help). In addition, instructions and walk-throughs before each dance are provided. The dance is done in long lines with partners facing partners, Then the fun begins. The steps are quite a bit like some square dancing, but more fun (my opinion). Experienced dancers are encouraged all evening to look around for newcomers and dance with them (if you choose). Contra Dancers, in general, are a nice bunch of folks who help out new dancers, even as we are dancing. Callers keep on calling the moves during the dance, until we are all familiar with the steps. No Worries. Here's a quick look. You can see the dancers and hear the McKenzie's music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NlgJWLP3OsU
It's at Warren Wilson College's Bryson Gym. Turn into the college at the North Entrance and turn immediately left into the Kitttredge Parking lot (behind the Kittredge music center). Bryson Gym is just across the street (within the college). Come as y'are - no special attire needed. Entrance fee is only $8.00. Wear clean shoes. I'll be there to help MV newcomers as long as you need it. I can dance as a lead or as a follow, as can many of the dancers. Anyone can ask anyone to dance. So, again, you do not need a partner, nor any worries about finding one. Promise! We change partners after every dance, and it's ok to say, "No, Thanks, I'm sitting this one out" Y'all come! Questions? Ask in comment area below, or send me a notification. Drinking fountain, bathrooms, and hand sanitizers available! You can bring your own water bottle if you prefer. This is also cross listed with Asheville Women Outdoors, so please RSVP at only one, if you belong to both groups.
