Introduction to Square Dancing with Betsy Gotta

Join us for a **FREE** introduction to modern western square dancing and socializing. Our caller, Betsy Gotta, will teach you all the moves you need to know so you'll be dancing from the moment the music begins. And forget everything you might have heard about dancing in dusty old barns to old timey music wearing crinolines and boots. When you dance with us, you don’t need any special clothes, previous experience, or even a partner. And the music is more like your Spotify playlist. After the intro session, you're welcome to stay and socialize with Times Squares members and see what fun you can have by learning to square dance. Doors open at 6:15 PM. Dancing begins at 6:30.
