Daytime Dance-Equatorial With Jamie Berg (1:00 pm - 2:30 pm)

Come learn a gentle dance from Tahiti. In Hawaii, E. Huli is a peaceful hula that encourages you to love life. Pata Pata is a popular dance from South Africa. We'll also learn dances from Mexico, India, Spain, Bolivia, the Phillipines, and may "go a bit northward" to Italy for Neopolitan Tarantella to heat up the blood!

FREE admission to kids ages 13 and under (must be supervised by an adult)
In a contra dance, the dance figures are similar to those of Old-time square dancing except the figures are made up of lines of leaders and followers facing each other. Many of the regular Tapestry contra bands play Old-time music (similar to bluegrass), but the music on any given Saturday contra may reflect music traditions from New England, French Canadian, Irish, Scottish, Cape Breton and modern compositions.
