A Fun Activity
Square dancing is a fun activity that is suitable for both singles and couples.  It provides you with a fun evening with some gentle exercise.
It is enjoyable for all ages and everyone is very welcome.  The best way to find out what its like is to come along and give it a try.

The basic step is as just that: simply a matter of putting one foot in front of the other, walking to the rhythm of the music — quite easy really.

The evening is divided into a number of tips. Each tip normally has two parts -  a “hash call when the caller announces various moves in a somewhat random sequence.  This is followed by a “singing call” where a specific set of moves are called and the sequence is repeated four times.

Each dance or “tip” is made up of a series of moves called out by the caller in time to the music.  Therefore you only need to learn the steps in each move rather than remember a whole dance sequence.  As a beginner you will be dancing with experienced dancers who will help to guide you through the dance.

Square Dancing is very easy to pick up, and and even on your first night you will be able to dance some basic tips.
