October brings us a new month of Stomptown dances! Be sure to see us here at Escape on Oct 3rd, or at Norse Hall on Oct 18th, as those are our only dances this month.
Our first lesson will start promptly at 7pm and is the line dance Do-Si-Do taught by Sye. Around 7:45 Caitlyn will teach a beginner two-step lesson, covering the basics of partner dance and getting everyone set for a great night of social dancing!
After the lessons DJ Skip will play all the best two-step, west coast swing, line dances and waltzes up until 11pm. Be sure to use the checklist to vote for which line dances you want played tonight!
We don't have a cover charge at this venue, but your donations help us continue our mission which includes renting venues, paying instructors and joining in on Pride events, so please donate as you are able! We have a table set up by the DJ with a cash jar and QR codes for app donations.
Remember to tip your bartender!
Check out our website at www.stomptown.org for examples of the styles of dance we do and our line dance library!
Escape Bar and Grill meets ADA requirements. The floor is all one level with a hard surface. Two single stall bathrooms are labeled "Sit" and "Sit or Stand, you do you." There will be dim, colorful, possibly moving (disco ball style) lighting. Music will be playing and background noise can be loud.
Parking is available in the small lot or on the street, but DO NOT park at the lot west of Prescott- they will tow! >:-(
