Square dancing is a fantastic choice when you want entertainment that encourages people to interact instead of simply watching from the sidelines.

It's an especially fun addition to country, Western, Americana, ranch, barn, and old-fashioned themed celebrations, but it can bring a refreshing and unexpected twist to just about any gathering.

With decades of teaching experience, Dale understands that the key to a successful square dance is making guests feel comfortable joining in. The emphasis is on participation, laughter, movement, and shared fun.

It's an activity that can help break the ice and create memorable moments between friends, relatives, coworkers, and guests who may have only just met.
