Times Squares offers classes for beginners at the Mainstream level, and more experienced dancers at the Plus, Advanced, and Challenge 1 levels. Mainstream classes are offered annually and higher level classes are offered when sufficient numbers of dancers are ready to progress to the next level.
Learning to square dance is an excellent way to socialize while getting some exercise and learning a fun style of movement. Square dancing comprises four pairs of dancers, or eight people, standing to face each other in the shape of a square. The caller will instruct the dancers to move in various directions which makes for interesting choreography. Throughout the dance (known as a ‘tip’) one may interact with all eight people in the square, until finally returning home with their original partner.
FREE open houses – All are Welcome, no experience necessary, no partner required.
