At a regular contra dance, I run my dances about 7-8.5 minutes, depending on how its going, but at a ONS dance, you want to keep the dances on the shorter side as the dances are usually pretty simple and can get monotonous if they go on and on, AND the people in attendance may not be used to dancing and may tire more easily than regular dancers.

Around here they have 'barn dances' but the caller is expected to bring recorded fiddle music. I have lots of contra CD's, but the tracks aren't as long as if you were at a dance. How many minutes is a contradance, anyway? Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15118980595433506542noreply@blogger.com
