How it works
A caller stands at the front and calls out each move in time to the music. Eight dancers, four couples in a square, follow along together. Nobody memorizes a routine: you learn the calls a few at a time in friendly lessons, and before long you’re dancing to callers all over Ohio, and anywhere in the world.
Why people love it
- Fun. You’ll laugh more in one evening than you have all week.
- Fitness. A night of dancing covers miles without feeling like exercise.
- Friendship. Square dancers are some of the most welcoming people you’ll ever meet.
- Good for the mind. Reacting to the caller keeps you sharp.
