Now is your opportunity to learn how to square dance! Modern Western Square dancing requires lessons to learn the steps. The local Capital Twirlers square dance club will be offering their annual square dance lessons at the Tallahassee Senior Center.

Today’s Modern Western Square Dancing is characterized by dancers forming “squares” of four couples who dance specific movements cued by a caller, danced to enjoyable music including Oldies, Current favorites, Gospel, Rock and Country & Western. Square dancing is a fun and delightfully energetic activity. You will be smiling within minutes and leave the lessons laughing and want to keep on dancing.
If your first thought is: “I can’t dance”, there’s no worry about stepping on your partner’s toes, since you are usually dancing side-by-side. No fancy footwork is required. Instead, you walk quickly in time with the music as you shape moving formations with the other dancers in your square - following the caller’s instructions. It is not difficult to learn; and you don’t have to be graceful. The challenge is in not knowing what will come next; the next step will be “called” out to you. As you continue learning, each “call” or step builds on the previous ones so, with practice, you will be rewarded with the very fun and satisfying experience of square dancing! You will walk many steps at each session, so wear comfortable clothes and shoes. (No crinolines or cowboy boots needed.) Contrary to our name, we do not twirl much, so you will not get dizzy.

Wear comfortable clothes. Lessons last 12 to 15 weeks. $3 per person per lesson
Please bring a partner if you can to get the most out of the classes. All ages.
