19th November 2022 with ECDB (English Contra Dance Band), calling from Rob Humphrey and Charlie Turner

Rob Humphrey has been attending folk dance events his whole life. Based in Cambridge, he discovered contra less than 8 years ago, but was quickly hooked and started calling shortly afterwards. He enjoys contra dances with pleasing patterns and unusual geometry that flow and provide opportunities for embellishments.

Charlie Turner has been dancing and teaching for as long as she can remember, but a move to San Francisco transformed her contra dancing and started her calling. Now based in Cambridge, UK, she brings the best of the West Coast to contra crowds, with clear, friendly teaching and satisfying dance selections. She emphasises connection, fun, flow and inclusivity in dance.
