What we’re about
Would you like to dance? If so, you've found the right meetup. Join us for a fun-loving dance meetup where the beats are hot, the vibes are cool, and the smiles are contagious. Whether you're a seasoned dancer, a beginner, or just looking to shake off the week, this is your space to move your feet, laugh, and connect with fellow rhythm-lovers. Expect enjoyable and friendly dancing, feel-good tunes, and maybe even a few surprise moves you didn’t know you had.
Our group will seek dancing wherever it is found. For example, at nightclubs, bars, NOMA square, festivals, dance halls, homes, etc.
This group is not focused on a certain style of dance. We welcome any style, such as swing, free style, waltz, line, ballroom, and salsa. Note, however, that we cannot guarantee that you will find others who engage in your preferred style of dancing (we don’t object if you’d like to instruct others in your styles of dance).
While it is customary for men to ask women to dance, this meetup urges women to break with custom and ask men to dance as well.
Note that at our events, you are not required to dance. Watching others dance is fine, but we do encourage you to get on the dance floor.
We encourage attendees to enjoy themselves. To dance as if no one is watching.
We urge you not to be shy!
Let’s celebrate the joy of “collective effervescence.”
No judgment, no pressure—just good music, great people, and a whole lot of fun. Come solo or bring a friend or two. Just don’t forget your dancing shoes and a desire to have fun.
Please share with the group any good dance venues you know of in the vicinity of Main Street in Greenville.
Civility Guidelines:
The objectives of this meetup are to enjoy dancing in a polite, social, respectful, and comfortable manner.
1. This is not a “singles” meetup, or a “hookup” meetup, or a “dating” meetup. There are meetups and online dating services suitable for that. I do, however, encourage making new friends or strengthening existing friendships. Please contact me (Dom) if you have an unpleasant interaction with a member at a meetup. Should I receive more than one complaint about a member, that member – at my discretion -- will be promptly removed as a member.
2. Please drink responsibly rather than to the point of becoming obnoxious, or dangerous to yourself or others. When attending a meetup at the home of a host, please respect the home.
3. If you sign up for a meetup event, please attend that event. If you are unable to attend after signing up, please be courteous by canceling your RSVP far enough in advance (at least a day or two if possible) so that those on the waitlist are able to attend. Our hosts work hard to set up an event for a certain number of attendees. If you sign up for an event and don’t attend, it is disrespectful to the host. And if you cancel less than 24 hours before the event, it is unfair not only to the host but also those on the waitlist.
4. Do not reserve spots at our limited attendance meetups "just in case" you decide to go. Far too often, folks sign up for an event with very little intention of attending. Such people do so "just in case" other plans fall through, or "just in case they feel up to it." The result is that a very high percentage of RSVPs do not attend. Please do not sign up for an event unless it is highly likely you will attend.
Thanks!
