That was July 4th Weekend at The Dancing Fish

Callers Janet Shepherd and Bob Isaacs

Callers Janet Shepherd and Bob Isaacs shared the stage with bands ReelPlay & KingFisher at The Dancing Fish’s Fourth of July Weekend, 1-3 July 2022.

Care to Waltz?

Before the Waltz, people danced around each other with little or no contact at all. As the dance started gaining popularity, it was criticised on moral grounds due to its close-hold stance and fast turning movements. Religious leaders regarded it as vulgar and sinful.

With the resumption of contra dances at The Dancing Fish, waltz opportunities too have resumed. Arrive early and enjoy waltzing to recorded music.

Coming up: 4th of July Weekend — and more!
