Re: [Callers] Estimating space and couples

In my experience hosting and attending kitchen dance parties, it's fine to invite more people than can dance at one time. Folks seem to be happy to rotate on and off the dance floor if they have food, drink and good company. They are also happy to dance smaller than usual. I'm intrigued by Alan's description of dancing a contra with 4 people, but 6 couples would be my minimum if you want good feedback on how the dance flows and feels to the dancers. I've never been to or hosted one that wasn't great, good fun. It's also very helpful to have something a bit more suitable than a kitchen chair to stand on while you call. Have a great time!
