Like everything else that's changing with the new and improving Northwest Dance Network, we're committed to remaking our dances as well — so if you have ideas for ways to make our dances even more enjoyable, email our Dance Manager, Dean Paton, directly and tell us what's what. We already bring you the best live dance music in the Northwest; next up, we'll be enlivening our dances with simple mixers, with more chances to dance with experienced dancers and—well, partly what we do could be up to you.
Picture your ideal dance, and then tell us what you'd like to see. We'll listen to any ideas that can make these dances even better.
