Contra Quick Tips
The following helps keep the dance fun, welcoming, and respectful. Visit our Dance Guidelines page for more information and to report any concerns.
- Give the caller your full attention so everyone can hear instructions and announcements
- Give gentle assistance to newcomers if needed
- We all make mistakes; keep the mood light
- Anyone can ask anyone to dance
- There’s no pressure to accept a dance request
- Joining the shortest line is a kindness
- Couples joining a line at the bottom, rather than cutting in, is respectful of others who have already formed sets
- If you need to drop out, try to wait until you’re out at the top or bottom
- Learn to give weight
- Consider changing shirts or toweling off if you become sweaty
- This dance is fragrance-free (no perfume, cologne, strong deodorant, excessive body odor, etc.)
