Every second Saturday of the month (excluding summer break) the Next Gen committe hosts a contra dance with live music at Concourse Hall in Ann Arbor. Contra is an easy dance to learn, where you and your partner mix with all the other couples in the line throughout a song in a taught pattern of spins, claps, stomps, etc.

Here is an example of contra music:
