Find Your Rhythm on the Dance Floor

Square and round dancing are social dance styles built on music, movement, and connection. The styles each offer a different feel while sharing the same welcoming spirit. Our dances alternate between lively calls and smooth, patterned movement, creating variety throughout the night.

Square Dance

Square dancing is performed in groups of eight, with four couples forming a side of the square. The dance is led by a caller who strings together a series of movements, ensuring that no two dances are ever exactly the same. Because the caller directs the flow in real time, the focus stays on teamwork and reacting to the calls rather than memorizing a set routine.

Round Dance

Round dancing is a choreographed form of ballroom dance that progresses in a circle around the floor. Couples follow a cuer who announces each movement in time with the music, allowing for a seamless flow through various rhythms such as waltz, two-step, or foxtrot. It combines the grace of ballroom with the social, directed nature of a prompted dance.
