WE'RE A CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION WITH A DANCE FOCUS

Welcome to our chapter website! USA Dance is dedicated to helping build ballroom dancing opportunities in every community nationwide!

We are a non-profit organization. USA Dance Chapters reach out to the community to promote dancing in a variety of ways including social dances with a group lesson prior to the dance taught by local teachers, public demonstrations, serving as an information resource about ballroom and more.

PERFORMANCE TEAM / FLASH MOB GROUP

There was such an outpouring of enthusiasm from the 2018 Flash Mob participants, that Candi Boone, one of our local instructors that helped with the flash mob, reached out to USA Dance about a performance group for 2019.  The group has been formed and meets every Sunday, from 2:00-4:00 pm at iDance (with the exception of some holidays).  The group will practice March 10 - October 6th.  For more information click to see the document.
