About the Seattle Single Dancers

The idea for the Seattle Single Dancers sprang from an experience of mine while living in the Portland area several years ago.  There was, at that time, a group of swing dancers that formed an organization called, as I remember, the Alternative Swing Dance Club.  It was essentially a phone list of singles that liked to dance. 

 

Each member of the group had a copy of the phone list.  Some of the more adventurous members of the group took it upon themselves to organize a Dance Night Out or some other social activity.
 

Over the years, this group of people formed strong, life-long friendships.  They enjoyed each others company, not only on the dance floor, but also at restaurants, movie theatres, backyard barbecues, and other kinds of gatherings.  My hope for that group is that they are still together, still strong, and still active.

 

The Seattle Single Dancers hopes to emulate that successful model by using the internet as apposed to a phone list.

 

In the future, and as time and funds allow, the Seattle Single Dancers hopes to host its own dances, workshops, and classes.
