Carmen Giunta's dance site

Welcome

Dancing of all sorts has been an important recreation for me for 20+ years. International folk dancing was my gateway to a world of recreational dancing that has expanded to include New England style contras and squares, Scandinavian couple dancing, English country dancing, and Scottish country dancing in addition to International folk dancing.

More recently I've been calling English Country dances (in public since 2003) and still more recently writing them. The main purpose of this site is to make my dances available to anyone interested in trying them.

Anyone who is curious about me, my day job, or my other website can follow the links or contact me at giunta [st] Lemoyne [dot] edu .
