Here's a website with dance move descriptions. Perhaps you can combine them withe the drawings from Marie-Michele. It is hard to describe the moves in just a very few words, I think, so you might need a large flyer or small type! 😊

We've got the attached file that was done to explain the figures to people who don't understand English very well, but as you'll see, it's in French and hand-written, so I don't know if it will be useful for you! It's also several years old and I have not taken the time to update it with our current terminology unfortunately.

Hi Folks,

One of our new dancers has asked if we could have a handout on the history of contra dance as well as a list of the figures with a brief description of each.

Does anyone have examples of these types of resources?  Any leads?

Thanks!
Emily
