Winter Round-Up
Sunday, February 15
Sundance Saloon

We're using the holiday weekend as an excuse to have a Winter Round-up and hold a line dance extravaganza, with a line dance marathon in the main room from opening at 5:00 pm until 7:15 pm! Come ready with your requests from our regular Sundance Saloon repertoire. (We will include a smattering of "line dance pro" dances in the mix, weighted towards earlier in the evening.)

We'll still have beginning two-step and line dance lessons, moved to the back room on this night. Regular open dancing starts at 7:15.

We’ll have free admission on Thursday, February 19, thanks to someone celebrating a birthday who has pre-paid for everyone on that night. We may or may not reveal the name of our benefactor. You'll have to come to Sundance Saloon to find out, or not!

West Coast Swing lessons in the Loft

Intermediate West Coast Swing
with Sheila Schlicht
Sunday, February 22: 5:15–6:15 pm
Sundance Saloon: Loft

Sundance Saloon offers a one-hour workshop for intermediate west coast swing on the last Sunday of the month. In February our instructor will be Sheila Schlicht. Attendees should be *completely* comfortable with basic WCS patterns (e.g. side pass, underarm turn, tuck, basic whips).

Unlike most of our lessons in the loft, this class is drop-in, with no advance registration and no additional fee beyond the regular Sundance Saloon admission fee.

March Birthday Dance
Sunday, March 1
Sundance Saloon

On the first Sunday of each month, we celebrate the birthdays of everyone who has a birthday during that month. One dance is designated when we invite the birthday folks to the dance floor, and everyone gets a chance to take turns dancing with them. We also provide the cake!

If your birthday is in March, we'll see you on Sunday, March 1!

Barbary Coast Cloggers

Clogging at Sundance Saloon
Thursdays • 6:30–8:30 pm
Sundance Saloon: Loft

The Barbary Coast Cloggers are bringing their clogging classes to Sundance Saloon every Thursday. Lessons in clogging , a form of percussive line dance, take place upstairs in the loft, while our regular programming of two-step and line dance lessons continues on the ground level.

The schedule is:

  • 6:30-7:30 - Percussive Line Dance - any level
  • 7:30-8:30 - Experienced Level

The experienced level is for those with knowledge of tap, clogging, or Irish dance. The classes are drop-in and there is no additional fee beyond the regular Sundance Saloon admission.

Line Dance Pro

Line Dance Pro
Sundays (except 1st Sun of month) • 5:00–6:30 pm
Sundance Saloon • Back Room

Can't get enough line dancing? Line Dance Pro is an opportunity to increase your line dance abilities and challenge yourself with new line dances not included in our regular Sundance Saloon repertoire.

Our Line Dance Pro sessions run every Sunday in the Back Room of Sundance Saloon (except the first Sunday of the month)! Includes lessons starting at 5:15 pm, except the last Sunday of the month which features a line dance marathon. Check the Sundance Saloon instruction calendar for the schedule. [No line dance pro on Feb. 15 due to the line dance marathon in the main room.]
