Stanford Quads

Square Dance Club

Class Overview

We hold a class each year, usually starting in October. This is a fast-paced class which, unlike most in the area, emphasizes All Position Dancing (APD) from the very start. This class is suitable for complete beginners, but may also be found useful by current dancers seeking more experience with APD as well as returning dancers who want a complete review of all of the calls from Basic, Mainstream and Plus.

Schedule

The class meets Sunday evenings from 7pm to 9pm. Because this is a fast-paced class, regular attendance is expected.

We will be having three free introductory nights - 3, 10, 17 October 2010. New dancers are welcome to attend any or all of these with no obligation.

After that, the cost will be $6/week/person, with a discount available for pre-payment.

The number of weeks varies from year to year, depending on the mix of students.

Location

We normally dance at Fairmeadow School, 500 East Meadow Drive, Palo Alto. When that room is unavailable, we usually dance at Covenant Presbyterian Church, just down the street at 670 East Meadow Drive.
