Community Contra Dance with Tally Contra Dance

  • When: Friday, May 29, 2026,  7:15 pm - 10:00 pm
  • Location: Tallahassee Senior Center 1400 N Monroe St, Tallahassee, FL 32303
  • Cost: See Description

Join us Friday, May 29th for a fun community contra dance! Our very own Vicki Morrison will be calling the dances to live tunes by The Flathead String Band.

Contra dancing is an upbeat, beginner-friendly American social dance for all ages. It shares many moves with square dancing (such as swing your partner and do-si-do) and is danced in long lines to live music. The bands and callers vary each night. No dance experience is needed and you don’t need to bring a partner. Those new to contra dancing are strongly encouraged to come by 7:15 when a Beginner Lesson will be taught, and as dances are taught in more detail early in the evening. Wear comfortable clothes and flat shoes.
