More years ago than he would like to admit, David was fortunate to be introduced to dance when he was invited to help start a high school based performing group that demonstrated English Country Dance, Contra, Morris and Sword dancing. He has been dancing and teaching ever since. David is known for his patient and clear teaching style and communicates the joy of dancing through his teaching and enthusiasm. He has been hired for dance weeks and weekends around the US and Canada by CDSS for Pinewoods & Buffalo Gap, BACDS for Mendocino & Hey Days, Victoria (Canada) English Country Dance for Hands Across the Water and Berea (Ky) Christmas Country Dance School. David has been the featured caller at English Balls in San Diego, Seattle, Vancouver Canada and Portland OR. He teaches traditional dance weekly at The Renaissance School of Arts and Sciences. He is a regular caller for the weekly Portland (Oregon) Country Dance Community Friday English dance and the monthly advanced dance.
David calls positionally and is also fluent with gendered calling.
