** NEW, JUNE 2022 **
Want to get out on the dance floor but aren't ready to learn a hundred dances?  The latest attachment is a list of 15 absolute beginner and beginner dances that are very common in the Rio Grande Valley.  Most music you hear is rock or country played in 4 (i.e., 4 beats per measure), so there are several dances on the list for this category.  It is also good to learn at least one dance in different rhythms commonly played by local bands;  the list contains a waltz, polka, rumba, and cha cha.  Enjoy! 😀

** NEW, MAY 2022 **
Attached below is a spreadsheet that contains the dances we have learned / practiced for the past 5 years.  Dances for the 2021/2022 season are sorted first and are in black;  dances from prior years which were not reviewed this season are in blue.  If there are any missing dances, please contact Donna Hucker at [email protected].
