  • 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?

TRY SQUARE DANCING!!

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.

Here's the deal. You may join Chi-Town Squares ($35 membership) and continue classes ($7 per session) through next May. 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!

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.

Contact us at: chi-townsquares@sbcglobal.net or call 773-561-5691 for more information. If you cannot begin classes this Fall, we will be starting a new beginning class in January 2008. Contact us for information.

Organized in 1987, Chi-Town Squares promotes, dances and teaches modern square dancing.  Membership and participation are open to everyone.

We welcome all dancers, regardless of...
age, race, gender, religion, ethnic background, or sexual orientation
