What does challenging mean?

• You know how to do more than just the basic moves with confidence (Contra Corners, Roll Aways, Cross Trail Thru, Pass the Ocean, etc).
• You know where to be at the start of each dance phrase and how to recover from a lapse.
• You can dance and enjoy no walk through dances.
• You assist your partner and neighbor to the next move—and you have a friendly attitude about it.
• You execute flourishes safely and on time without disturbing others.

** It's not how long you've been dancing, it's how well you can adapt to challenging and unusual choreography**

Cancellation Policy for First Friday Challenging Dance

If there is a concern, we hope to have a final decision by 4PM. We will automatically cancel the dance if the town of Concord bans parking on the streets and in the municipal parking lot.

When in doubt, call 978-779-6077 or check this website.
