Move in the footsteps of our ancestors as we enjoy traditional dances from many cultures, as well as contemporary
pieces choreographed in the spirit of ancient
folk dance set within the context of
the Wheel of the Year.
About New Haven Community Circle Dance
Check out this fantastic article about us in the New Haven Register: http://www.nhregister.com/articles/2011/03/15/life/doc4d7bb84d4d608849399709.txt
We meet the first Thursday of every month from September-June, from 7:30-9:30 at the Friends Meetinghouse at 225 East Grand Avenue, New Haven, CT. See our schedule and directions pages for more information.
An $8 donation is suggested to cover costs.
All dances are taught on the spot and no experience is required. Most dances consist of simple steps that anyone can learn. There is no need to bring a partner.
We dance in bare or stocking feet or soft-soled dance shoes in order to avoid stepping on each other's toes and to preserve the hardwood floor in our beautiful space.
Children are welcome but be aware that some of the steps may be challenging for them, and they must be attended by an adult at all times.
If you aren't sure whether you want to participate, you are welcome to come and observe the dance. Even regular dancers often enjoy sitting out a dance now and then to observe and soak up the beauty of the dance.
We have a lovely large room with windows on two sides open to a wooded environment.
Our meeting place is a smoke and alcohol-free environment. Water is provided at break time.
Ample, lighted parking is available on site free of charge.
