| |  Member | WEB SITE (http://www.joesaltel.com)Calling Basic thru C1
Joe's introduction to square dance calling came at the early age of eight, when his grandfather assisted
him in learning his first few singing calls. Joe has been actively calling and teaching Basic through A-
2 since 1971, and recently began calling C-1. He has been a featured caller for many festivals,
conventions, and special dances in over 38 states (including Alaska and Hawaii), Canada, Mexico, New
Zealand, England, Denmark, Sweden and Japan. Joe is a member of Callerlab and is BMI/ASCAP licensed. As
a recording artist, his voice can be heard on the Alliance, Blue Star, Chinook, DJ, Dance Ranch, Hi-Hat &
Silver Sounds labels, as well as many CD's and cassettes. Joe is also a member of SAG, and he
choreographed and appeared in a made-for-TV movie, "Blue Skies".
Joe and Chris spend November - April running a full square dance program in Pharr, TX. The
remaining months they maintain a smaller program there, tour and travel domestically & internationally to
call at festivals & special dances.
Joe enjoys what he calls his vocation and avocation, and feels fortunate to be part of this great
activity.
Joe and his wife Chris married in 1982 & they have
led eight successful tours/cruises. Chris held a
managerial position for 19 years, and has always
supported Joe's calling career. In 2001 they moved from
their home of 19 years on the Northern California coast,
and now live full-time in the Rio Grande Valley of south
Texas. Their daughter, Tanya, traveled & called onstage
with Dad; now a 26-year-old she is a casino floor supervisor/dealer.
