New 2009 Class Members will find help at the following two resource links. 
 
If you want to review a call that you have learned in class, click on either or both of these links and search for the name of the call.  Saddlebrook will show you videos (requires vider player on your computer), and you can search for the call you want.
 
Taminations shows you a drop down list of many calls, sorted alphabetically.  Click on the call you want and a frame will open with a controls at the bottom allowing you to "play" the particular call.  You can choose slow motion or regular and you can rewind or start over to see it as many times as you want.

How do I learn Square Dancing?
 
It is easier than you think.  Sign up for a Class. Plan to attend once per week for approximately four or five months .... there are over 60 different Square Dance "Calls" to learn.  Each night is a fun, two-hour time with other newcomers and experienced Frontier Squares members---known as "Angels".
 

Round Dancing and Line Dancing
 
Go here for more explanation of what Round and Line Dancing are.  We do both at Frontier Squares.

Testimonials
 
This is what recent new graduates of our last class have to say about learning Square Dancing at Frontier Squares:
 
"We wanted some exercise that was fun to do and that we could do together.  We remembered square dancing from our school days and decided to give it a try.  We have been so glad we did.  It has been fun every time and we are committed square dancers now."   ...Richard and Cathy

"Since I still play hockey in the winter and softball in the summer, I wanted something that we could do together after work as an outside activity.  I read about the square dance opportunity on another discussion board and showed it to my wife.  I thought that she would have little interest.  However, once we went to the first meeting and met some of the folks there, we were overwhelmed with friendship.  Since that first night, we have completed our first year of dancing and have been changed in our thinking of the square dance reputation.  This is a real challenge to keeping our minds sharp, our feet moving, and our focus on the calls.  We have hardly missed a week of dancing because we enjoy it.  I recommend this activity to anyone with the slightest interest no matter what age.  You will have fun, get some exercise, and enjoy the friends that you will meet.   .....Larry and Diane

Computer Tip for Viewing this Site
 
If you seem to have trouble reading the text (it is too small) or looking at the photos (they are too small), then you can "render" your page larger.
 
Most new up-to-date browsers allow you to "scroll" the entire page larger.  Hold down the Ctrl Key and roll your Mouse Wheel and the picture will get larger.  This will allow you to read the text and see the pictures more easily.
 
Most older browsers will allow you to set the text to larger sizes. This helps read the print but will not increase the size of the photos.
