Many of the Toledo Area clubs offer "lessons" and "new dancer dances" to help the newer dancer reach the level the clubs dance at. The following is a listing of the current offerings for the 2011-2012 dance season. We encourage you to select the location closest to your home. This list will be updated as new information on these activities is received. Please note that classes typically start in September and are closed to newcomers after a short period of time to allow for progression of teaching.
In addition, in the winter/spring of 2012, the Toledo Area Western Dance Leaders Asociation offers "Freshman Frolic" dances at various locations in the area. This page will also contain the details of these dances as they are determined. Please watch for our current information.
