CONTRA DANCE IS NEW ENGLAND-STYLE FOLK DANCE. You dance with a partner in a set of other couples. Each dance’s figures are taught, and then verbally prompted - or "called" - to live music. It is easy for beginners, and satisfying for experienced dancers. IT IS SO MUCH FUN! Celia Ramsay has been calling Contra dances since 2002, but has been telling people what to do for much, much longer. Celia chooses dances that fit the people in the room, uses clarity and brevity in teaching, and has a warm personality that makes the dancers happy. She also calls family friendly dances for any event, as well as ceilidhs (say “kay-lees”; think of casual Scottish dance party)! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59516a823e00be59ae1276e0/1519506937110-Q9KICSJ5FFCY4CPOJER0/IMG_1971.JPG DANCE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59516a823e00be59ae1276e0/1519081251134-L5D0CUY6XQQ6OFFUJDGN/Ritual1.jpg DANCE - DO YOU WANT TO HOST A DANCE? Book Celia to call a dance for you! These simple dances are suitable for all ages, and can be fun for fundraising events, school events, weddings or celebrations of any kind. If you are considering a dance for your special event, please talk to Celia first, because she has valuable experience about how to make your dance a success; if she’s unavailable, she has other callers to recommend, and she'll find the right band, and make recommendations on sound and location needs. https://celiaramsay.com/bio daily 0.75 2026-03-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59516a823e00be59ae1276e0/1565985480843-QN1QS0HC1NMSBY67R46X/Celia.jpg BIOGRAPHY https://celiaramsay.com/carmony daily 0.75 2026-03-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59516a823e00be59ae1276e0/1550788267965-R4D932BD78DLGDP9MQ6V/Celia-Libby+car+singing+postcard%3F.jpg HARMONY https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59516a823e00be59ae1276e0/1498536160734-4I4LARK57FYNW90Z1S6J/CARMONY+COVER HARMONY https://celiaramsay.com/events-aria daily 0.75 2022-08-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59516a823e00be59ae1276e0/1624493605758-K04BNT3QVYDSFJGWLHX2/IMG-8122.jpg Events - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://celiaramsay.com/hero-aria daily 1.0 2026-01-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59516a823e00be59ae1276e0/1661220989336-RTGM309PC6K9IKNGQTNN/Celia+Ramsay.jpg Celia Ramsay • Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59516a823e00be59ae1276e0/1568182796714-DA6XJYLMS2D2IM7W0WVJ/August+14+2019+F%26S+gig+%281+of+1%29-10.jpg Celia Ramsay • Home - Song & dance the magic of voice and movement https://celiaramsay.com/contact-aria daily 0.75 2026-03-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59516a823e00be59ae1276e0/1661367614783-L9KJAM0U0GNUSMHDMOA4/unnamed.jpg Contact https://celiaramsay.com/listenbuy-on-bandcamp daily 0.75 2026-03-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59516a823e00be59ae1276e0/1723592071112-3H7IGCYQ0JK644YQEWHU/unnamed.jpg BANDCAMP https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59516a823e00be59ae1276e0/1551937438697-E6A0OZ9N6FO66UPZ9H8U/Front+Cover+Your+Fool.jpg BANDCAMP https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59516a823e00be59ae1276e0/1526250369563-AY1XNBORSN03FVRBT1QL/cover-comp-dark+blue.jpg BANDCAMP https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59516a823e00be59ae1276e0/1662408150546-23UHXJWDJF7INQA83A9N/IMG_1125%2B2.jpg BANDCAMP https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59516a823e00be59ae1276e0/1526250216710-9AFWC8FZHP1WR8GBKDXW/image-asset.jpeg BANDCAMP https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59516a823e00be59ae1276e0/1526250463615-BJ7XY9225YJ6OWYRA29H/image-asset.jpeg BANDCAMP https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59516a823e00be59ae1276e0/1531937273738-VL441Z2AOXBLZR8PRX85/tree-reflection-comp+copy.jpg BANDCAMP https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59516a823e00be59ae1276e0/1527462245624-02YA4VDWGVO83HGSU98V/Roads+I+Travel+EP+Cover+smaller.jpg BANDCAMP https://celiaramsay.com/tour-dates-aria daily 0.75 2025-05-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58865db49f745650bf5a134a/1490652242462-XUYJJ59PTXZHGU7S4EF9/10_20160720S1_NEWPORT_FOLK_FESTIVAL_SARAH_GOLDSTONE_039.jpg Tour Dates https://celiaramsay.com/media-aria daily 0.75 2025-05-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58865db49f745650bf5a134a/1490652124476-DF491BQCI2T22WWLGZTA/03_20160720S1_NEWPORT_FOLK_FESTIVAL_SARAH_GOLDSTONE_302.jpg Media https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58865db49f745650bf5a134a/1491231141980-Z7ZOL36NQ27I4SZUJ6FQ/image-asset.jpeg Media - songs EP   Out now on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon, Google Play, and more! https://celiaramsay.com/bio-aria daily 0.75 2025-05-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58865db49f745650bf5a134a/1490652093816-R53AAZ7WTFBI7TW9QBBU/04_20160720S1_NEWPORT_FOLK_FESTIVAL_SARAH_GOLDSTONE_242.jpg Bio
