Hello all,
Sometimes I write in to check if a dance I've penned has already been written; but this time I'm sure that it hasn't.
Note, this is not a dance that I think should be called, it's a joke dance and they have very limited utility. But I miss the extended contra community and wanted to share as a reminder that our dance community is still out there, and we will celebrate and dance in person again someday.
