Fortune Teacher Feature from El Estoque on Vimeo.
Spanish teacher Joyce Fortune enjoys spending her weekends performing a rather traditional American dance called contra dance. The dance form is similar to square dancing with it’s own twist. It requires two sets of partners — creating a group of four –– as they follow a pattern and spin to the Appalachian music. Part of Fortune’s dancing attire is a large skirt that flows as she twirls on the dance floor –– one of her favorite aspects of the dance.
