You are currently viewing Take A Chance on the Square Dance


Looking for an evening of fun and socializing? Join us for an introduction to square dancing. No partner, experience, special clothing, or dance skill required. If you can walk, you can dance!

Our club, Times Squares, is offering four open houses this summer. Come to any or all of them! You’ll learn the basic moves at any of the sessions, and a few additional moves at each of the four. The open house lasts one hour.

Friendly experienced dancers will be there to help out, and we have a fun and talented caller/teacher lined up for the evening. A great time is guaranteed!

If you like it, you’ll have the opportunity to join our beginner’s level classes starting August 4. Classes will run every Tuesday night from 6:30 – 9:00 through October 27 to get you up to the Mainstream program. Then you can dance with any square dance club in the world!

Come see why we say “Square Dancing is Friendship set to Music!”

Times Squares is New York’s only LGBTQ* square dance club. We welcome people of all genders and orientations. You don’t have to be LGBTQ* to join — just friendly!
