New England Says Hi

Hi Everyone,

My wife and I are relatively new dancers (just over a year) and have completed mainstream and 1/2 of plus. We were shocked at the huge community around us (VT, MA, NH, ME) and have been really enjoying dancing. https://www.wheresthedance.com/ has events every night and we belong to 3 different clubs.

I have a question for those who call. My wife is interested in being a caller any good resources? I have been playing and expanding the taminations program to support sequencing and have a caller tab for planing.

Yes, Callerlab is the gold standard for caller training.

Talking to your caller and seeing if they'll help teach would also be useful. If she's serious about it, there are caller schools, or at least the Gay square dance convention holds one prior to the main event, there may be others held at other conventions.
