Members get in free … Sunday at USA Dance
Members get in free at the next USA Dance social dance party: 3 – 5 p.m. this Sunday, March 17, at the Albuquerque Square Dance Center, 4915 Hawkins St. NE. We’re also celebrating our 18th anniversary — see more in our accompanying post.
Our lesson, at 2:15 p.m., is East Coast Swing, taught by Lawrence Black of Dance Station. Perry Pedersen will DJ. Admission is free for USA Dance members and $10 for others. We host these Member Appreciation Dances every quarter. If you’d like to support the mission of USA Dance — and save enough money on our Albuquerque dances to more than pay for a $35 membership — join here.
We also also hosting another shoe swap on Sunday. Please bring your gently used dance shoes to the dance, or see if you can find a pair that fits you.

Seeking Jacks and Jills. Sign up for our Jack & Jill dance contest on April 7. We’ll pair leaders (Jacks) and followers (Jills) at random, and ask our couples to dance a rumba, cha cha, East Coast Swing, and waltz. Our judges — Rosa Delgadillo Burt of Abracadabra Ballroom Dance Co., and Michiko Sibley, formerly of Arthur Murray — will choose the winners.
