In addition to local dances, there are contra dances in or near Gainesville, Jacksonville, Tampa, Titusville and elsewhere. Click here for more info. There is also an English Country Dance in Tallahassee. Click here for details. We suggest you come to the Old-Time Jams and the Irish Jam, all at the Blue Tavern, where you can listen to fine music, get some food and drink, and maybe dance with a partner a little! The Jams are often held outdoors on the back patio. Click here for more info. |
