USA Dance is partnering with Albuquerque dance instructor Joseph Chavez for an afternoon of fun and affordable workshops on dance technique on Sunday, March 30.

Thanks to all of the Shiny, Happy People who blinged it up at our first dance of 2025.

Partner dancing is tons of fun — and it’s great for physical and mental health! But it can also lead to injuries if dancers ignore basic precautions.

We’d like to remind our USA Dancers of a few rules and best practices that will keep us all safe without diminishing our fun.

Please join us at the next USA Dance social dance party: 3 – 5 p.m. this Sunday, June 2, at the Albuquerque Square Dance Center, 4915 Hawkins St. NE.

Santa Fe dance teacher David Lopez will teach a Viennese Waltz lesson at 2:15 p.m. Doug McClellan will DJ.

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

Barry Paur, a longtime USA Dance member and a friend to many of us, passed away a day shy of his 86th birthday on Jan. 22.

Barry’s memorial service will be 11 a.m. Monday, Feb. 5, at the Wyoming Chapel, 7171 Wyoming Blvd. NE, with a reception to follow.

Sunday (Dec. 17) is a Member Appreciation Dance at USA Dance, which means members get in free for our last dance of 2023.

Brenda Dunagan Lamon will teach a foxtrot lesson at 2:15 p.m., and will also perform with Everett Farr.

The dance is 3 – 5 p.m. Andy Nelson will DJ. Admission is free for USA Dance members and $10 for others.
