The Zenkaikon Ball is a costume and formal dance event. The preliminary time slot will be on Friday evening near the end of the scheduled activities. We will instruct you in dances of the
English
and
Scottish
traditions and, possibly, some Japanese folk dances.
Jenny Beer will be our caller. Jenny is a local English and Scottish country dance instructor.
You will not need to bring a partner as we will be changing partners throughout the event.
No prior dance experience is necessary!
