Why Square Dance ?
Square dancers meet other dancers from their own community, other cities, other states, and even other countries!
All the calls are the same no matter which country you visit!
It's HEALTHY!
Square dancers walk an average of 5 miles during a two-hour dance. What a great way to get exercise without really trying!
For Home-Schooled Teens, square dancing lessons & dances may satisfy New Jersey's Health/Physical Education Requirement of 2.5 hours/week.
It's CHALLENGING!
Square dancers learn to execute many calls which can be given in any order. Dancers can progress through the different CALLERLAB programs:
Basic, Mainstream, Plus, Advanced and Challenge. Most dancers dance at the Plus level. Bee Sharps is a Plus Program club.
It's FUN!
There is a different caller at each dance and each caller has a unique style. Square dancers add their own special moves and sound effects
to make the dancing more exciting. When dancing, you forget your daily worries and just concentrate on the dancing.
It's SOCIAL!
November 29, 2024 is National Square Dance Day !
Get out and dance !
