Looking for an entertaining date night activity? Want to enjoy dancing, even if you don’t always know your right from your left? Wondering about a fun exercise that can lead you to new friends, fitness and some occasionally crazy endeavors? Has your empty-nester status left you with time to fill? SQUARE DANCING could be your answer. Square Dancing is essentially a team dance effort, in which sets of eight people perform sequences of moves given out on the spot by a caller – for example, “Circle left, dosido your partner, allemande left your corner, grand right & left.” People take lessons to learn the moves for each call. But during the Square Dance, it’s the caller who calls the shots, so to speak. Think “Simon Says” for adults. Fun, spontaneous, teamwork set to music in an alcohol-free setting. Come as a couple or a single and give Square Dancing a whirl! |
