What Do You Know About Modern Square Dancing?
Here's your chance to learn something new.
Who hasn't heard of square dancing? It usually conjures up thoughts of Western music and clothing, a rather kind of hoe down theme. That is not modern square dancing which includes any music with a good beat and basically whatever type of clothes one is comfortable wearing while moving at a brisk pace.
Modern square dancing can be a great family activity. No partner is needed. Anyone who can walk briskly can learn to square dance. It's great mental and physical exercise as well as fun and social. It really helps to improve listening skills while generating smiles and laughter along the way.
For a free introduction to square dancing, come at the Middleton Congregational Church, 66 Maple St. (Route 62), Middleton on Thursday, Sept. 16 and/or Sept. 23rd from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm. After finding that you enjoy the activity, sign up for the 10 week dance series for $85 per person offered by the Riverside Square Dance Club. Masks are required.
