H-Town Squares

 

CLUB VISION

​

We seek to glorify Christ first and foremost, providing a fun, safe activity that facilitates friendship and fellowship for our teens and young adults. 

 

Interested in square dancing?  This June is the perfect time to jump in!

​

H-Town Squares offers a series of lessons that covers the 68 mainstream movements required to become a certified Mainstream Square Dancer.  The lesson series end with the H-Town Squares Graduation Dance - a fabulously fun night to celebrate our graduates!

​

The lessons progress through complicated movements that follow a standard curriculum.  For this reason, once a commitment has been made, please make every effort to attend.  The progress of the entire square depends upon individual members being present and prepared.  Grand Squares lessons are for anyone 13- 19 and also parent couples. Lesson Takers are our new students and Angels are our experienced dancers that come to assist in squares. It is important for everyone to be there as much as possible.

​

Lessons will start on June 7th, and will occur on Friday or Saturday nights throughout the summer and fall, from 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM.  Upon registering, you will be added to the email list to receive further details pertaining to the location or contact us for more information.  To register, check out the Membership page.
