Going for the first time
Folk and traditional dance nights vary widely — Scandinavian, English country, square dance, contra. Most are caller-led so you're walked through every figure in real time. No partner needed; the format rotates everyone through the set.
Listen for the caller. Thank your partner and the band. If live music is playing, applaud between tunes.
