\u00a0<\/h4>\n

The North Texas Square and Round Dance Association (known as NORTEX) includes 20+ clubs in and around the DFW area.\u00a0 Almost every evening, there is a dance somewhere!<\/p>\n

Square dancers are all ages.\u00a0 Many who learned to dance when young, take a break during the child-rearing years, but then come back.\u00a0 Others bring the children along and encourage them in the hobby as well.<\/p>\n

Travelling to different square dance clubs gives dancers the opportunity to dance to a variety of callers and music.\u00a0 It is also a great way to meet new people with common interests.\u00a0 Square dance clubs engage in friendly competitions to “steal banners” from neighboring clubs by bringing at least 6 dancers to the other club’s dance.\u00a0 Check out what is happening in the DFW area at \u00a0Nortex Club Events<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0If you are travelling outside the area, look for square dance clubs along the way or at your final destination. It’s an international activity and always done in English! Club members and callers have travelled to other countries to dance internationally.\u00a0 In addition, the club has welcomed dancers from other States and countries.\u00a0 Because square dancing is always done in English, Americans and Brits can feel comfortable dancing everywhere.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

National Square Dance Convention<\/a><\/h4>\n

A national square dance convention has been held in the United States from more than 40 years.\u00a0 The event peaked with more than 20, 000 dancers in California in the 80s.\u00a0 \u00a0These summer events provide square dancing opportunities in different venues and degrees of difficulty.\u00a0 Many square dancers travel with their families to the convention to maximize their time and enjoy the location.\u00a0 \u00a0The 2026 Convention will be held in Waco TX.<\/p>\n\n\n
