The Woodshed sessions let callers and musicians try out new (or new-to-them) material. It is for both new and experienced callers/musicians/dancers.
As a caller, you can present dances—typically English or contra—and ask the dancers for feedback on both particular and general points. This isn’t only for the seasoned caller: it is an excellent opportunity for would-be callers to test the waters in a supportive environment.
When not calling, you are welcome to dance or play (or watch!)
As a musician, you can play dance tunes with experienced dance musicians. The band is open: it is best for players who can sight-read or learn by ear quickly and play up to dance tempo.
As a dancer, you can learn new steps and choreography, as well as practice figures you already know. All levels are welcome: we need feedback from both new and experienced dancers.
