Class Level Dances

Thursdays - 7:30 PM to 9:30 PM

Starting September 25, 2008

The Fairs 'n Squares Square Dance Club holds classes for beginners on most Thursday nights from 7:30 PM to 9:30 PM in Framingham, MA.

Come down to Ellison Hall any Thursday night (through mid-May 2008) to see the fun in person.

Circle left - Swing your partner - Promenade

You already know plenty of square dance calls. You will be learning more each evening. Our class caller/teacher has been calling for square dancers for decades, and has taught hundreds of us to square dance.

We welcome couples, families, and singles. We recommend you bring a partner to dance with. We encourage you to bring your friends along as well. Dress in comfortable clothes and shoes.

We dance at Ellison Hall, Framingham, MA

Almost all our classes are held in Ellison Hall which is associated with the Plymouth Church at 87 Edgell Road, Framingham, MA. This is located on the East side of Edgell Road, approximately one quarter mile north of Route 9 in Framingham Center.

No Risk or Obligation dance

This is your opportunity to discover the fun of square dancing at no risk or obligation. If you agree that square dancing is for you, we will teach you the BASIC level of square dancing in a session consisting of 10 classes, once per week each Thursday, ending in mid-April. The cost for these ten sessions is $60 for a single person or $100 for a couple that will dance together for the session.

The Fairs 'n Squares subsidizes classes for beginners in order to expand the square dancing community and to share our enjoyment with others. The more people dancing, the more fun it is for all involved.

Square Dancing - a World Wide activity

Each dance starts with four couples arranged on each side of a square. The caller directs the movement of the dancers by calling out the name of the next dance step to be performed: Dosido, swing your partner, circle left, promenade. Square dancers learn the movements associated with each of the 'calls'.

We offer Class Level Dances so that you can learn and practice  these movements. In addition to dancing at every session, you will also be learning more square dance calls and movements. The fun starts with the first class that you attend.

Come and Join the Fun

Our Square Dance classes are intended for teaching adults to dance. Teenagers are also welcome. Younger children are welcome to learn square dancing while accompanied by their parents. In all cases, the learning experience will be better if you have a regular dance partner to practice with.
