Workshops

“Featuring Feet” Foot Percussion (2:15 p.m. at the Open Mike Stage) – presented by Colin O'Brien.

John Hartford's dancing foot percussion was both musically engaging and a highly entertaining part of his solo concerts. In this workshop Colin O'Brien will present the fundamentals of John's basic “Home” step one at a time. From there it's not a big leap (or step) to the Waltz step Hartford also used. This dancing connects the pathway between one's mind, heart, and feet. Good for the musician and good for everyone else! Also included will be a demonstration (and sharing) of Colin's own amplified dancing platform. See live footage (no pun intended) of the dancing for yourself at www.colingobrien.com.

Hard shoes are preferred, but please; no tap shoes.

This workshop is open to all!
