This week, we’re talking about Dance opportunities is the Lehigh Valley. But we’re talking about opportunities to move your body as well as your spirit. As it so happens, this Friday’s concert in the Sculpture Garden features the acoustic Quartet, Atlanta Crossing that plays and sings music of the New England, Cape Breton and Celtic Traditions. The band is accompanying the Lehigh Valley Contra Dance Group so there will be plenty of motivation to get up and learn a pattern dance with some friendly neighbors. As luck would have it, The Lehigh Valley Contra Dancers also host regular sessions for beginning levels to the more challenging Contras. They aren’t too far away from campus, just a hop, skip and an allemande left over the Lehigh River to the UUCLV church on New Street.
For those who may be interested in studio work, on June 15th Laura Hausmann begins her 8 week summer dance sessions at Taylor gym on Tuesday nights For more information, please contact Laura via email.
You may also want to explore some of the many yoga centers in the Lehigh Valley. We have a few listed in the ArtsLehigh Directory: a quick guide to the arts at Lehigh University and in the Local Community.
The Lehigh Valley is now in full gear with music festivals; and if it’s hard to keep still while you hear a great beat – why hold back? Perhaps I’m just a push-over for the Fox TV show, “So You Think You Can Dance.”
