RUM

RUM & ONIONS XXV - Halloween Contra Dance in Princeton, NJ - Saturday, October 30, 2004

Cis Hinkle, from Atlanta, Georgia, has delighted dancers since 1985 with her welcoming manner, clear instruction, enthusiastic calling, and perfect selection of appropriate dances. Cis specializes in flowing, sometimes challenging contras and fast-moving squares. She can easily corral a lost dancer back into place, and keeps the dance moving with ease, diplomacy and humor.
    Cis has been on staff at many dance and music events, including English and American Weeks at Pinewoods and Buffalo Gap, Victoria's Revenge, and the Dance Flurry.
   "She is 'Atlanta's Dance Magician.' Her warm enthusiasm is contagious . . . you can be certain that all involved, novices and experienced dancers alike, will be happy and eager to dance more!"
                                                                                                            -Memfest, Tennessee
