The ECU Folk & Country Dancers promote the preservation of historical and modern folk dance forms among ECU students and the community. We currently sponsor contra dances and salsa dances in the Fall and Spring semesters.
With beginner lessons beforehand, our dances provide a fun social environment for participatory dancing. No partner or previous dance experience necessary! People wear everything from jeans to dresses/skirts and heels.
It may be possible to do without dancing entirely. Instances have been known of young people passing many, many months successively, without being at any ball of any description, and no material injury accrue either to body or mind;--but when a beginning is made--the felicities of rapid motion have once been, though slightly, felt--it must be a very heavy set that does not ask for more. ~ Emma ~ Jane Austen
