Elizabeth teaches English Country Dance and Irish Ceilidh Dance, which are the roots of American square dance. Elizabeth has been English Country dancing since 1989 and in 2003 co-founded the Mendocino English Country Dance series of monthly dances. She also is a composer and choreographer of dances and music.

Besides dancing she has played the piano since the age of five and is accomplished in many genres of music. The magic of the hammered dulcimer began for her at the age of 16, and she has been playing it avidly ever since. The pennywhistle has also been her constant musical companion for many years. She also performs with the concertina and concert flute.

Elizabeth has written some beautiful original dances. Dance calls and music are listed here.
