The "Dancing with the Stars" series has sprouted new and enduring interest in ballroom dancing; health practitioners are promoting dancing as a healthy exercise for physical fitness as well as prevention of dementia and Alzheimers.  I remember the joy at age 11 learning the 2-step (poor man's fox trot?) to "You Belong to Me" and the hesitation waltz to "Tennessee Waltz" at Francisco Jr. High in San Francisco; later the thrill of "getting it" after learning to jitterbug, and still later the mambo …

The Hayward Contra was founded to be a truly *community* dance. We are proud of our success so far in this regard – that so many of you value and feel like a part of the dance – and strive in every way to keep it going. We have a simple saying that sums up our philosophy: "Everyone dances with everyone."

This group is for people who both love to dance and to support charitable organizations (with time or money). I want to merge these two areas, somehow. That's all I know. I need help defining the rest. With your help, this can shift from a random thought to something tangible. Will we throw dance parties in the name of particular charitable causes? Will we dance to raise money for causes? Will we ask non-profits to dance? The possibilities are endless.

Welcome! This group is for dance enthusiasts of all types! If you enjoy dancing in night clubs, attending dance classes, attending dance performances and socializing then please, join us! Our focus will be mainly on San Francisco, but will include events throughout the bay area when possible.

Kizomba is a beautiful and sensual partner dance, originally from Angola, which is taking the world by storm. For experienced dancers, it is an exciting breath of fresh air. The basics are comfortable to slip into, yet, the dance is challenging enough to keep anyone dancing it for years to come. This also makes Kizomba perfect for anyone wanting to enter the world of dance. A beginner can enjoy the pleasure of social dancing much quicker than with other types of partner dances. Kizomba was deriv …

If you like country, and you like dancing, and you like country events, you'll love this group!!! There are many country folks in this area, but unfortunately not to many place to go for country so it seems country is fading in this area.  Many, along with myself, would like to see that change. The one thing I love about country folks is they're a friendly bunch. Whether you're new or old to country, they welcome you as if you're an old long time friend they haven't seen in awhile, and visit wi …
