What we’re about
We're folks who like to dance! We go to all sorts of dances, from ballroom to swing and to freestyle-express-yourself dances. Dancing is good for you, so jump in and join in the fun! It's just nice to get to know people who have the same interests! Note: this group may close soon. If you would like to take over the group, shoot me (Lindsey) a message!
