Do women ask men for a dance?
Quite often. The atmosphere is very friendly at SSDS events, and it is quite acceptable and common for women to ask men if they would like to dance. What is the age range of people who attend dance events? There is no age restriction to SSDS sponsored events, even when they are held at venues which serve alcohol. Dancers range from high school students to grandparents; specific make-up varies each week. What is the dress code? Dress is casual. Some women wear pants, others wear skirts, but whichever, it’s definitely casual and comfortable. Please bring soft-soled, non-marking shoes to protect the wood floor (and for your comfort). Benson Wong has an article, which includes a relevant discussion of dress code, in addition to other subjects. What kind of dances are popular? We play a lot of west coast swing and lindy/jitterbug/east coast music at SSDS dances. Some hustle, cha-cha, salsa and country music is also played. Dj’s take requests. Feel free to bring your favorite cds. Is smoking
