The Society traditionally reserves the 2nd and 4th Friday of every month, however, there are occasionally scheduling conflicts with other groups and major holidays when renting the hall,
so check back with this schedule for our latest information. We have an emphasis on ballroom dancing, but we play swing and latin music as well. Our dances are held at the
Ultimate DanceSport. Check out our venue page for more details about the Ultimate Dancesport.
We open our doors at 7pm and begin with a 1 hour lesson from 7:30 to 8:30. Then we have open dancing from 8:30 to 11:00. Admission for the lesson and dance is $5.
The lesson price is included in the general addmision. More information on how to become a member is on our Join Us page.
