You're a Morris dancer? Too cool! I always wanted to be a Morris man,
but never thought I could (being female). I'd love to come watch you
awaken the sleeping Earth, but sunrise on a weekday after a two-hour
drive..and..my boss isn't keen on giving us pagan holidays off. Keep
us posted whenever you dance, ok?

Aili -  There are Morris Women too!  Where do you live?  There might be a
group nearby.

Aili,

There are a number of co-ed and women's morris teams. You can look for a
team near you from the lists on these websites,
http://web.syr.edu/~rsholmes/morris/rich/morris_links.html or
http://www.mit.edu:8001/people/jcb/morris-teams.html . As for our other
dances; at Sunrise on May Day, we will be dancing with the local women's
team Mystic Garland, at Connecticut College. And if really want to see
lots of Morris Dancing you should check out the New England Folk Festival
in Natick Massachusetts (near Boston) http://www.neffa.org/~neffa/ two
days of Morris Dancing, plus contra dancing and lots more. I hope this
helps you find a morris team.


Take Care,
Rick
