Square dancing is for everyone!

Come on out for an Old-Time Square Dance in Berkeley.

We have live music at every dance.

All ages welcome. Beginners welcome. The caller teaches all of the dances right before we dance them.

Dress: casual. Bring dance shoes if you have them. No stiletto heels allowed.

This is an old-time or traditional square dance rather than a modern or club square dance. Square dancers of all stripes are welcome!

This is a queer-friendly event where you can dance any role you like.

PRICE:
$25 supporters,
$20 non-members,
