Hear Ye! Hear Ye! Big changes are coming to USA Dance! You spoke; the board listened!

You asked for more line dances (which don’t rely on leaders and followers). And you wanted lessons for intermediate and advanced dancers as well as beginners.

So, starting in March, we are introducing line dance lessons at each dance, followed by simultaneous dance lessons — one for beginners and one for intermediate and advanced dancers.

What kinds of dance lessons would you like to take at USA Dance? Would you prefer evening dances in the summer?

We are conducting a survey of our dancers, and we encourage you to spend a few minutes to give us your thoughts. Your responses will help us plan for the coming year. The survey includes space to give feedback, in your own words, to the USA Dance board.

We’ll honor our volunteers at the next USA Dance social dance on Sunday, Nov. 2.

The dance is 3 – 5 p.m., but if you come early you can participate in our free Back to Basics coaching session (led by Debra Williams) at 1:30 p.m. Our lesson, at 2:15 p.m., is rumba, taught by Stefan Easter of the 2 Left Feet dance studio. Debra and Bill Zimmerman will also perform a waltz.

DJ Perry Pedersen is honoring “Women in Song“ with a playlist featuring all female vocals.

Admission is $5 for USA Dance members and $10 for others.

Thanks to everyone who dressed up (or down) for our Autumn Spooktacular dance on Oct. 19! Click on a photo to see a bigger version. 

¡Qué Viva La Fiesta! USA Dancers had a great time posing for mariachi photos at our Cinco de Mayo dance. Check out some of the our ‘mariachis.’

And the Oscars went to … everyone who came to a recent USA Dance in Albuquerque dressed as a movie star or film character!

We rolled out a real red carpet (OK, a tiny one) for its March 2 dance, Academy Awards day. Dancers transformed themselves into current and historical actors and characters that rivaled anything happening at the real Academy Awards. Our stars even took home their own, six-inch-tall Oscars.
