"Drop-In" to find out how much fun Modern Western square dancing is.
Tallahassee's Capital Twirlers Square Dance Club invites you to participate in some basic steps at the Tallahassee Senior Center second floor ballroom from 7 to 8 PM on October 14, November 18, December 16 or January 13. Then join a new beginner's class starting on January 27th for 12 weeks at $5 a lesson. Square dancing is a delightfully energetic activity that requires lessons to learn the steps. You will be smiling within minutes, 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 create 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. Please bring a partner, if you can, to get the most out of the event. Ages 12 and up.
