Do you know this caller? I've wanted to dance to her ever since I stumbled across this video snippet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V28zWsX3lWc But I don't travel to dance much these days, and AFAIK she has not been out this way. This is a square, but there's no reason you couldn't do contras this way.

You might also ask Jackie Hall in Sherbrooke/Lennoxville. I've bcc'ed her.

She calls in Montreal for the Quebec folk at least once a year. I find in general Quebec Square callers do not sync the timing of their calls to the music as much as contra callers do, possibly because it's way harder to say a figure name in French in four beats! But many people have recommended that I contact Susan Kevra who has called in France so I sent her an email. Thanks!

Yes, definitely talk with Susan Kevra. I have heard her do bilingual calling, switching back and forth seamlessly between English and French. She called at the Ooh La La weekend several years ago too.

As I am one of the organizers (and local callers) for the contra in Montreal this is something I'd like to get into at one point. I have heard several things over the years: that someone was explaining the figures in French but calling in English but also that someone had gone through the trouble or finding translations that worked for some figures. has anyone on this list tried calling in French or if you now someone who has and could put me in contact with them. I'd rather not go through the time of figuring these things out if someone has already done it! Thanks!
