I Still Remember Learning To Square Dance In School as it was a PE requirement. But I don’t remember how to Square Dance if my life depened o it. So if Charlie was still attending Homeschooling and I needed to teach him to Square Dance we both would fail. And if we asked David to help us he couldn’t as he doesn’t know how to Square Dance either.
So today I would like to let you know that there is Video Square Dancing online we can watch to lean how to Square Dance and I can’t wait to get started. So check out the video’s and let me know what you thought of them.
Age Range: All (All grades; children with parental supervision)
Square dancing has been around for hundreds of years and now you can gather your family and friends together and learn how to square dance with help from the video lessons on this website. Using Mainstream and Plus dance calls, lessons are explained by caller Larry Kraber from the Saddlebrooke Squares dance club in Tucson, Arizona.
There are more than 25 lessons where you will not only learn the positions such as “heads” and “sides” but also calls such as:
- Circle left/right
- Do Sa Do
- Promenade
- Allemande
- California Twirl
- Different types of “thru”s
- Sashay
- Box the Gnat
- See Saw
- Bend the Line
- Various Wheels
- Swings
- Waves
- Acey Deucey
- Thars
- Tag the Line
- Load the Boat
- And many more fun-named calls.
Each video lesson explains the call while the dancers demonstrate the moves first slowly then as it would be done in a dance.
This website provides those unfamiliar with this dance style a great way to have fun while discovering something new.
So today since I shared with you “I Still Remember Learning To Square Dance In School” can you tell me if you ever learned to Square Dance and if so when? And can you still Square Dance and do you do it? Have you taught your children and would you want to?
Thank you,
Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
