Anyone Can Lead or Follow
FREE Dance Lessons
Do you go to the Saturday Night dances at the Lodge?
Want to improve your dancing?
You're in luck. We're holding free dance lessons beginning March 10, 2025 in Room 1 at the Lodge. See below for more details.
Monday Lessons: East Coast Swing
Starting March 10, 2025 we will be teaching East Coast Swing; a fun, triple-step swing dance that is perfect for dancing to mid-tempo music, and is easy to learn. Most of the songs played at the Saturday Night dances and by Tribute bands are mid-tempo, so come to our classes and have some fun while you learn some killer moves! Our lessons are geared to take you from beginner to advanced level dancing. Note: Space is limited.
- 1:00 PM - Beginner lessons
- 2:00 PM - Intermediate lessons (requires knowledge of the basics)
Friday Lessons: Night Club Two-Step
Our Night Club Two-Step dance lessons begin on March 14, 2025 at 2:00 pm in Room 1 at the Lodge. Night Club Two-Step is a smooth, elegant dance that is done to slow music. You will need to bring a partner with you for these lessons (sorry, we're fresh out).
Our Next Sock Hop Dance Party is on Mar 27, 2025

When: Mar 27, 2025 7:00 pm
Where: The Lake House (Antler, Bowers and Catawba rooms)
Join us at the Lake House for a rockin' good time at our fun, old-school party as we dance freestyle, swing, line dance, nightclub 2-step, cha-cha or those special moves you do to good ol' Rock and Roll music. It's not just a dance; it's an experience! We'll have a photo booth and lots of props so come prepared to party and have a blast with a few crazy friends.
DJ Joe King will be spinning all the hits so if you can't find your friends, it's because they're all at our dance party, and you're not!
NOTE: If you want to quietly sit and ponder the meaning of life, this event is NOT for you.
The joint will be jumpin' so be there or be square!
