This
is not your junior high school square dancing!
This
is not your Momma's square dancing!
This
is FUN!!!
Gay
square dancing is a fast-paced, high-energy
form of Modern Western Square Dancing, complete
with many of its own unique flourishes.
Gay
square dancing is based on Modern Western Square
Dancing - the kind danced almost everywhere
today. Anyone who has learned to do Modern Western
Square Dancing can do gay square dancing. However,
there are some differences:
 |
No
special attire is required. Just dress comfortably.
|
| |
|
 |
You
don't need to bring a partner. Singles are
welcome. |
| |
|
 |
Our
dancing is fast-paced. Membership in most
gay square dance clubs (including ours)
tends to be younger than most straight clubs.
Although lessons are held at a slower pace,
to allow people to learn, tips (dances)
for experienced dancers move quickly. |
| |
|
 |
Gay
square dancing has its own unique set of
flourishes to traditional calls, which liven
the dancing up and mark it as uniquely ours.
These flourishes are recognized by IAGSDC
clubs around the world. We will be happy
to teach you these flourishes. |
| |
|
 |
You
can dance either the lead (traditional male)
or follow (traditional female) role, regardless
of your sex. Some of our women dance the
lead role and some of our men dance the
follow role, and everyone is happy (except
for our sometimes confused caller, who has
to keep us all "straight"). Some
of our much more experienced dancers can
dance either role. |

|
 |
Everyone
is welcome, regardless of sexual orientation,
gender identity, race, ethnicity, religion,
or any other minority status! |
