What is high energy contra ?

Do you enjoy ceilidhs?
Have you been to weddings or parties and danced til late?
Do you like Celtic music or bluegrass?
Do you dance morris,Appalachian or clog but want to take your friends along to an exciting dance they can join in easily?

HIGH ENERGY contra is lively and friendly like a ceilidh.
The moves are interesting but not too complicated.
The music is fast and exciting!
It is based on Celtic and French-Canadian tunes, with the swing you find in bluegrass.
