The dance featured a variety of different styles of fiddle song and dance from red river jigs to Russian Sasha dance to line and square dances. For newcomers these dances were instructed by board member Ryan McCord.

The Aurora Fiddle Society still has some spots available for youth group classes who meet every Friday, taught by Andrea Bettger. Spaces are limited.
