Recently I enjoyed dancing a contra presented by Diane Silver which she has as "DoPaso Contra". I found a reference to a dance by that name attributed to Henry Garfath (UK) in Kindly Keep it Contra, which I don't have. Can anyone verify the dance below as that same dance or give another author? Thanks.
