Organizing a class takes a lot of work. In the Wrangler Club organization the First Vice President has the responsibility for promoting a new class and overseeing its activities to graduation. For the class it's meeting new people, having fun together on the dance floor, and at graduation the opportunity to join the Wrangler Square Dance Club—or any club in our local North County Palomar Association, for that matter. Then participating in club square dances with other clubs in our local Association, as well as, State and National  Associations.

If you are looking for a fun, low-impact aerobic activity and want to make some friends while getting in shape, try square dancing, the non-competitive team sport. Today's dancers are a lively, fun-loving group.

The dancing itself is excellent exercise and is touted by doctors everywhere as a great way to help maintain your fitness. There is an element of mental challenge and a wide variety of music styles as well.
This class covers the "basic," "mainstream," and "plus" square dance calls. Partners are recommended, but not required. No experience is necessary. All ages are welcome. Square dancing is a perfect activity for singles, couples, or families. Western wear is not required. Attire is casual.

Modern Square Dancing is great fun and great exercise!
It's also a great way to have fun and meet new people!

*** Angels are always welcome at class dances! ***
