Why Dance? --- WHY NOT!

In Modern Western Square Dancing you’ll find fun of a type impossible to express in words; new friends, genuine laughter and great exercise.

But I Don't Dance!

If you can walk to music, know your right from left, you can square dance. Many of today’s most experienced dancers had never danced before being introduced to square dancing.

What is Modern Square Dancing?

Modern Square Dancing is truly a worldwide activity. A square consists of four couples dancing set patterns under the direction of a caller. It is characterized by a smooth shuffling walk to music in contrast to the older style, which usually has only one couple moving at a time. In modern square dancing the general pattern is to have everyone in motion. Gone is the wild swinging and roughness of yesteryear. Even the music has changed to include modern beats and melodies. Most of all it is non-competitive.

Options in Attire

Ladies, you have options in attire…..from a vast variety of the beautiful and colorful traditional attire, to a wide variety of liberalized socially-acceptable (“today”) styles. Gentlemen, there are also equal options for you! You choose!

How Can I Learn?

Square Dancing requires a series of dance sessions to learn the fundamentals (mainstream). Clubs and callers in the area sponsor these sessions. The fun starts the first time you “Square-up” and the fellowship lasts for a lifetime. Sessions typically start in September - contact us and we'll help you find a place to dance,,, hopefully with US!
