Welcome to the Family Dance listserv! The purpose of this group is to provide information to families in Greater Seattle about local family dances and other music dance events that would appeal to families.
Family dances are appropriate for families with children ages 10 and under. Younger children can often be held and older children who enjoy dancing still enjoy the dance. We also occasionally organize family friendly community dances that are appropriate for all ages but will require a higher level of skill and ability to focus than our family dance series.
Our dance location is currently in flux. Please join the group and keep an eye our for posts and look at the calendar where details will be shared. We have danced in Sunset Hill, Greenwood and Ballard, but due to rent increases, we have had to move around a little more as of late.
All of our dances have live musicians and live callers. No dance experience is necessary. Our dances are food allergy aware events. To protect food allergic dancers and reduce the spread of illness, we ask all dancers to wipe or wash hands before dancing and bring no outside food into the dance hall.
We are grateful to the wonderful callers and musicians who support our dance and to all of the families who choose to spend their Sunday afternoons with us. It wouldn't be a community without you all!
