These kinds of dances are a relatively new tradition that grew up in the northwest and has become very popular. There are now two of these every week in Portland. These are couple dances, BUT you are WELCOME to come alone, and encouraged to meet and dance with lots of different people. So, come alone, come with a friend, come with many friends. We will be happy to help out with learning any of the steps and we always have an easy 30 minute dance lesson starting at 7:30 .
