Good News! We now have the same GREAT dancing each week ... without all the politics! No more meetings. No more officers. No more resolutions, sub-committees, proposals, motions, minutes or bylaws.
Just dance and enjoy "Fun without Fuss".
If you liked the old FunDancers, you'll LOVE the NEW FunDancers! Don't worry: we still need help and support from all our friends ... and this means YOU! Everyone is important because everyone adds something unique and special to the overall party atmosphere.
We have heard great reports from other clubs around the world who found themselves similarly bogged down in politics. They solved their political problems the quick and easy way. They retired all the politicians and got back to basics: dancing and having fun!
So ... WELCOME to the New FunDancers! We're glad you're here and we know you're just gonna LOVE IT!
The New FunDancers kicks off in great style this Sunday April 29 with Internationally Known caller Darryl Lipscomb from Mission Texas:
5 pm - Lines and Squares for January Beginners
7 pm - Lines and Squares for Experienced Dancers
9:15 pm - afterparty
January Beginner Dances will continue through the end of May. Starting in June, we'll all dance together as Experienced Dancers. The Beginner Progress chart is online at http://www.fundancers.org/beginchart.htm. Hip Hip Hurray for our fantastic January beginners, as well as our wonderful Experienced dancers!
Remember: Dancing is the smartest activity in the world because it's fun yet it's also extremely good for you!
Big thanks to everyone who helps make FunDancers such a friendly and joyful place on Sundays!

It's also a great opportunity for anyone who dropped out of square and line dancing to drop back in. Perhaps you lost 17 percent of your proficiency ("use it or lose it"). If so, you can gain it back at 5 pm on Sunday. Dancing is high-energy fun but it's also extremely good for you.
Big thanks to everyone who helps make FunDancers such a friendly and welcoming place on Sundays!

FunDancers next dance is April 15 with Ed Larder
FunDancers is closed for the Easter holiday on Sunday, April 8. Our next dance is Sunday April 15 with guest caller Ed Larder from Temple.
5 pm - dance for January Beginners
7 pm - dance for Experienced Dancers
Back when Nasser was first learning to call, he went to a caller school in Tennessee. Having only 6 months of calling experience, Nasser was the newest student in the school. The most experienced student in that same school had 22 years of experience. That most experienced student caller was, in fact, Ed Larder from Temple, Texas.
For some reason, after you survive a week-long caller school with someone, you become lifelong friends. Through the years, Ed and Nasser have kept tabs on each other (sort of) yet the last time we actually met in person was at that caller school in Tennessee, 25 years ago. Our paths have "almost" crossed on several occasions, and they'll "almost" cross again: FunDancers has Ed Larder calling on April 15 and Nasser on April 22. Our life paths will converge at exactly the same place and time, except exactly one week apart. When compared to 25 years, one week apart is a Close Encounter.
Happy Easter to all! We hope you'll have many close encounters with the numerous friends you'll meet in square dancing!
