Contra calling is a relatively easy skill to learn--much easier than mastering fiddle-playing, auto repair, child rearing or Photoshop. After getting several hours of initial instruction in contra calling, the challenge becomes getting 40-100 hours practice over 10- 50 dance events needed to experience the various things that might go wrong or that one might do wrong, while having more experienced callers nearby to counsel one through the mishaps. And of course workshops will intercept some of the potential mishaps.
