Hi Amy,
Yes, I travel back to the East Coast occasionally and could time a trip to attend a
class.
In-person training would be best, but online training would work as well. Book training I
already have plenty of.

Hi Brian,
You say you're in Austria. Just got clarification, do you travel back to the States
frequently? Or are you looking for online or book training?

Some of the CDSS dance camps include week-long calling classes. There is also good
information in "Zesty Contras" and Tony Parkes' book "Contra Dance
Calling: A Basic Text."

Long time dancer, first time caller.
Anyone know of any courses / workshops to improve my calling (in person or online)?
I'm willing to travel for the right course. (E.g. Meet Me in St Louis had a calling
workshop in 2024, but the schedule isn't out yet for 2025.)
My wife and I were long-time Boston-area contra dancers who are now trying to bring the
tradition to our adopted city in Austria. Almost all the dancers are new, I'm a new
caller, and I believe it would help me to attend a class to learn more and get feedback on
my technique.
Thanks,
Brian
