Partners Western Dance classes and activities for spring 2019

Jane Gromelski

We have Partner Pattern dance classes on Thursdays; they will continue through April. Beginner Partner Pattern dance classes will be offered at 6:00 p.m. Intermediate classes will start at 7:00 p.m. These Partner Pattern dances offer a change of pace for our Western dancers. Some are easy, others more complicated, but they are all part of the challenge and fun of Western dance. These classes have a suggested contribution of $4 per person, per class. Classes will be held in the Mariposa Room in DesertView at SaddleBrooke. We try to make all our classes relaxed and fun, because dancing is fun!

In March, on Wednesdays at 6:00 p.m., we will offer Arizona 2 Step classes. The Arizona 2 Step is a smooth, alternative to the Texas 2 Step. It works better on some country songs. It can be done stationary or progressive. Classes will be in the MountainView Ballroom at SaddleBrooke, starting March 6. Please email me if you would like to attend.

SaddleBrooke Partners Western Dance Club offers many dance opportunities each month. Club membership is $15 per person.

The club has a dance with a live band once a month in the MountainView Ballroom. Wild Ride will play for us on Tuesday, February 19 and Saturday, March 30. These will be dinner dances with a cash bar. We have a short class or review before the dance starts, so everyone is ready for a ground poundin’ good time.

Doors open at 5:00 p.m., and the band will play from 6:30 until 9:30 p.m. Ticket prices vary, depending on the menu. Please email me for information.

We will also have a DJ dance on one Thursday each month in the SaddleBrooke Club house Vermilion Room. Volunteer DJs will provide the music. This is burger night at SaddleBrooke One; we can order from the menu, socialize, then get in a few hours of Western dancing from 6:15 p.m. until 8:15 p.m. Since these Thursday burger nights are popular, please email me that you will attend by Thursday, the week before the dance, so I can make reservations for our group. These dances are open to all, members and non-members. Planned dates are February 14, March 21 and April 18. They are subject to room availability.

Grab your partner, some friends and come join the growing number of Western dancers here in SaddleBrooke.
