GOT STYLE?


If you ever wanted to learn the square dance styling of the Chi-Town Squares, here is your chance!

Caller Arlene Kaspik will be teaching all of our signature whoops and hollers on Tuesday, February 2, 2010 from 7:30-9:30 PM at:

Ebenezer Lutheran Church
1650 W Foster Avenue
Chicago, IL

As are all our dances, everyone is welcome, whether single or coupled, and dress is always casual. Although this is our usual class night, no new calls will be taught, but there will be a Mainstream level review at 7:00 PM. Admission is $8 for non-club members, $7 for Chi-Town students, or $4 for Chi-Town members.


  • Want to get some great, low-impact aerobic exercise?

  • Want to meet lots of gay, lesbian, and other friendly folk in an open, non-smoking environment?

  • Want a mentally stimulating activity that's lots of fun?

Perhaps you have unpleasant memories of nerdy junior high exposure to square dancing or grandparents who wore funny outfits. Trust us, this is NOT gay square dancing as we practice it! Come see how we do it, with lots of twirling, swirling and fun. Note: you do not have to bring a partner - most of our members are single and you are guaranteed someone with whom to dance.

Michael Maltenfort will teach our Mainstream/Plus class for beginners on Tuesday nights starting September 15, 2009 at 7:30p.m.. Classes are open to new students through September 29. (The first 3 classes are free!)

"Club Night" is a Plus dance that will be held every Thursday night beginning October 1, 2009 at 7:30p.m. with John Oldfield and other guest callers.

Sandie Bryant will continue the popular Monday night A2/C1 workshops, starting September 14, 2009, alternating advanced and challenge level tips and working on problematic calls and concepts.

Here's the deal. You may join Chi-Town Squares ($40 membership) and continue classes ($7 per session) through May, 2010. If you prefer not to join, you may still attend classes ($8 per session). In no time, you will be square dancing and attending over 15 special dances we have scheduled for the next year. Plus you can dance with other dancers throughout the United States, Canada, and the world!

Organized in 1987, Chi-Town Squares has over 160 members and is open to everyone: gay, lesbian, transgendered, bisexual, straight, whatever. We are not exclusively gay/lesbian and especially welcome our straight friends, family, and neighbors.
