• Contra dancing, most often at the NEFFA contras on Thursday nights at the Mt. Auburn VFW hall (Cambridge, MA), but also at the Concord Scout House (Concord, MA) on Monday nights, with Tony Parkes and Yankee Ingenuity;

• Morris dancing, with The Black Jokers (Brookline, MA);

• English country dancing -- usually at the Playford balls (Boston in early March, Baltimore in the middle of October, and Philadelphia in early December) -- and sometimes on Wednesday nights at the YWCA (Cambridge, MA) with Bare Necessities.
