Cue Steps Round Dance*
Sundays, September 14 to December 7 and January 18 to April 19
At a glance, round dancing looks like social or ballroom dancing, since the rhythms and movements are the same. However, round dancers have the advantage of pre-choreographed and cued dances which use defined (and practiced) figures and steps. A variety of classes are offered from Beginner to Phase IV. www.rounddancecalgary.com.
