Foxtrot - couple dance
Creator: John Gfroerer (January 16, 2016)
The Old Grey Goose provided the music and Doug Protsik gave a brief introduction as dancers enjoyed a little foxtrot among other country dances. This was part of the Retrospective session led by caller Chrissy Fowler: "Overlock's Orchestra, Maine dances in the early 1900s." Couple dances such as the foxtrot were—and in some communities still are—an important part of social dance programs, including those that focused on contras and squares.
There are many examples of couple dances included in the SDHP collection. Click on this link to go to a listing.
