I've been calling intermittently since July 2011. Currently, I am the interim caller for the Dixie Square Thrus in Sylacauga, AL twice a month and call random tips at local clubs at the request of the club caller. I truly love square dancing and calling! The people I have encountered are amazing and very supportive! Working together, it is my desire that the square dancing community will expand and become an activity that people recognize, participate in, and enjoy on a grander scale! There are so many benefits of square dancing, and I'll consider it my personal goal to do my part in promoting this wonderful form of dance!

I have been calling for 25+ years. I call for 2 clubs on a weekly basis. I have taught in the continuing education program on several occasions. I do one night stands without the help of experienced dancers. Although I do not call the Advanced program, the wife and I did dance it for a period of time. I entertain at retirement homes by singing classic country songs for those beyond their dancing years. I believe a square dance is as much a social event as a dance event, and a square dance club should be part of your personal support group.

I started my club, Bluebird Squares, in 2017 in Bryant. We started dancing in June 2019 at the Saline County Fairgrounds, Benton, Arkansas. We are a very casual club that meets the third Saturday of the month (with a few exceptions). My main intent is for the dancers to come and have fun! I do mostly singing calls which my group says they enjoy. My music includes, but certainly isn't limited to: Dancing on the Ceiling, Black Velvet, Storms Never Last, Old Time Rock N Roll, Pink Cadillac, Never Been to Spain and many others. We also do line dancing between tips and I have taught them many line dances. I love line dancing almost as much as square dancing! I believe square dancing should be a time to get away from all the problems and just have fun and laugh!

I am a "traditional" dance caller. I lead and call contras and squares in what's dubbed the "traditional" style. I am not a member in of Callerlab, and I don't participate in the class orientation of the Modern Western Square Dance organizations. I call in the "all are welcome" style of including a walkthrough of each dance prior to calling it to music. Also, I only work with live music. If the budget is small, I provide the music for my calling by playing fiddle. Though I follow that age old tradition of fiddling and calling, I do use a PA... I started calling in 1984, became a regular caller in San Luis Obispo, CA in 1986. I love calling dances for experienced contra dancers as well as callers for large groups of non-dancers at weddings, parties, and any kind of get-together.

Skip the nursing home, die calling. Unique Talent: I can still stand on my head and have been known to teach sushi and bread making classes, and am a master gardener.

Doug is available to fill in at square dance clubs in the San Francisco Bay Area. He thoroughly enjoys filling in for fellow callers so he can meet other square dancers. He calls levels from Beginners thru Advanced and especially enjoys teaching beginner classes. Doug's specialty is One-Night-Stands (aka easy-level parties for non-square dancers) for large or small groups at events like birthday or anniversary parties, wedding receptions, school and church fundraisers, fraternity/sorority parties, corporate gatherings and fraternal organization and retirement community events. Most parties are focused on square dancing and line dancing, both of which are Doug's areas of expertise, and he has the ability to generate great enthusiasm. Doug's Sinatra-like voice can bring the evening to a close with relaxing dance tunes from the era of Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin, so everyone enjoys some soothing slow dancing after an evening of lively action. He has received numerous compliments on his song selection and singing from the heart. Doug can also do "Square Dance Demos", providing the dancers, the music and the calling. He has also been a recording artist with Rawhide Records, and is a member of the Square Dance Callers' Association of Northern California.

Square Dancing is one of the most entertaining and health promoting activities to be found. I am passionate about its virtues and have been for over 40 years. My primary mission is to educate, entertain, and expound the value of Square Dancing to everyone. In Paradise, California I call for the Calvet Ridge Runners, a weekly workshopping Plus Club, and have begun a Community Dance Program to support promotion and recruiting and because it's FUN! I consider myself an excellent One Night Party dance caller, as I have worked hard to perfect the art over the last 20 years.

I'm a firm believer that "Everyone can dance!" and I make it my mission to bring dancing to groups of non-dancers, wherever they are. I specialize in one-off events for beginners, e.g., wedding receptions, birthday parties, bat mitzvah celebrations, church and community events, events for students, anywhere people want a good time dancing together. I'm the house dance caller for the monthly 3rd Saturday barn dances at Pie Ranch. Most of the time I bring a live band with me to my events.

Naaman Moorehouse started his calling career in 1977 while living in Honolulu, Hawaii. Throughout the next 16 years he organized and maintained three dance clubs in Honolulu and was a frequent guest caller around the islands. After relocating to the mainland, he organized and maintained dance clubs in Davenport and Preston, Iowa and was a frequent guest caller for dances in Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa and Missouri. Several years ago Naaman relocated to western Colorado and declared himself to be retired from the work demands which kept him on the road for so many years. It was soon thereafter that he picked up his mike, dusted off his records and rekindled his passion for calling. He is currently the club caller for the Delta Hub Wheelers (Delta, CO); the Black Canyon Twirlers (Montrose, CO); and his own Plus Club, the High Desert Diamonds, which he recently started and which dances the 1st & 3rd Fridays of each month in Grand Junction, CO.

Ron is one of only a few Modern Western callers who bridges the gap between CALLERLAB sanctioned programs and his own unique Community Dance Programs. Always presented with first-timers encouraged to participate, program variety is accomplished by varying the dance formations. With a presentation that includes a blend of traditional square dances, modern western square dances, Appalachan Big Circle dances, New England contras, circle mixers, couple dances, and an occasional English Country dance, Ron makes it fun and easy for everyone.

I started calling in 1998. I have fun at my dances mixing the old with the new. Most of the comments I receive are, "you play different music then most." I have called is some unusual locations, the top of Mt. Evans in Colorado at over 14,000 feet, 200 feet below ground at Wind Cave in South Dakota, the Royal Gorge Bridge in Colorado, on stage at Mt. Rushmore along with various other locations. I love to try different things with my groups. We have done Hashtag dancing, Dutch crossing, and others. I am the club caller for Ridge Runners in Conifer, Colorado, and also travel where ever I am hired to do a dance. My wife and I enjoy traveling in our RV to visit, see, and enjoy other areas. I truly believe Square Dancing is Friendship Set to Music.

I called regularly from 1967 to 2007. My teachers were Al Brundage and Earl Johnston as well as Jim Mayo, Ron Schneider, Jack Lasry, Deuce Williams, Audry Jones and Jay King. I also loved to dance New England Contra Dancing and Traditional squares to Duke Miller and Bob McQuillen who were influenced by Ralph Page. During the years I called, Western Style diminished rather than grew in New England. Ron Baldwin in CT has created a new club in the past 3 years. Earl Johnston once said Western dancers dance with their hands and traditional dancers dance with their feet. I believe we should take the best of both worlds and have them dance with their feet and hands and recreate the positive atmosphere that Ron Baldwin has done with his club. Choreography has evolved over the years and we should be able to theme our choreography around concepts that create smooth flowing material that creates a dance feeling of fun, fellowship and success. I have some ideas on how to achieve this by grouping calls into families and knowing how they evolved.

We are licensed by ASCAP and BMI and we are members of the Connecticut callers association and CallerLab.

I am a Square Dance Party and Fun Nighter Caller - The DJ alternative. I specialize in beginner and square dance parties for non-dancers including adults, families, scouts, youth, father-daughter dances and handicable groups. Need a fund raiser? I'm also available for dance party or fun nighter dances for your organization. Need a Guest Caller? I can guest call for your square dance club through "lite" Plus. That means I'm willing to call Basic Dances as well if you don't want a regular MS dance. I can also call what I say is "Lite" Plus: That's a light mixture of Plus mixed with MS if your club wants some of the Popular and Easy Plus Calls, but not all of the Plus program. I'm a former member of the local Washington, D.C. metro area callers group NCASDLA. I now live in Acworth, GA (35 miles NW of Atlanta). I'm rejoining Callerlab in early 2021. I'm available now to call for clubs in the Atlanta - including Bartow, Cherokee, and Cobb, GA areas. Remember, Square Dancing is Friendship set to Music.

I started dancing and going to events with my dad in 1973. I started calling one night stands in 1985. I was taught by my dad George Wiseman who was a caller for more than 47 years before he passed away. I have called for events at Conner Prairie, church groups, library programs, football teams, family gatherings, girl scouts, home school groups and at an American Legion. Young or old all seem to have fun because it's not about aptitude it is about the have fun attitude. "Square dancing is friendship set to music". "Have Music and Microphone Will Travel"!

I am traveling part time. I call for a flat rate, no percentages. I am a second generation caller, my father called in the 1950's and 1960's. I did singing calls with him in 1965. I did not call again until 1992, after being a "retread" in 1991. Associations I belong to include ACA, Southeast Iowa Callers Assoc. and Iowa State Callers, Cuers and Instructors Association. I play both 6&12 string guitar, and Hammered Dulcimer,also Mandolin&Mandocello.I just love all kinds of music. I think as long as you have fun in square dancing,I call for a group of senior citizens, one day a week. I do call in my regional area. and you love what you're doing, you have a good outlook on life.

I began dancing as a teen in 1972 with the Susquehanna Swingers in Havre de Grace, Maryland. At Susquehanna Swingers, I learned to square, round, and line dance. I have been in love with dancing since. I was recruited as a caller in 2006 by Sage Swingers Square and Round Dance Club in Brunswick, Maine. As an associate caller, I was mentored by local callers Bill Fulton and Walt Bull, and attended caller school at the NorthEast Caller School with Ken Ritucci every year since 2006, most recently serving as an Teaching Assistant. In September 2011, I started Twin City Spinners Square and Round Dance Club in Lewiston/Auburn Maine. Promotion for the club start-up included many flash dances and demonstrations and an incredible article published in the Lewiston Sun Journal. I started cueing rounds in 2014 in response to the need for more round cuers. I now cue most styles and levels of dances. Square dance calling: I call through A1, teach through plus and prefer to call fast-track (hot hash) mainstream and plus. Round dance cueing: I cue two-step, waltz, foxtrot, slow two-step, cha, tango, jive, humba, and bolero through Phase 4. I will cue higher level dances with advance notice. I am a member of the international caller/cuer associations Callerlab and Roundalab, and local caller/cuer association NECTA, METRA, and am a founding member of the Four Corners Association.

At this time, I am not traveling very much but I am calling remotely using Zoom. The Zoom dances can be 2-couple ("virtual") or 4-couple ("regular") dances, based on the needs of particular groups. I am excited by the idea of using the Zoom technology to reach groups that would otherwise require expensive and time-consuming travel. I have called regular, 4-couple dances, over Zoom, to groups ranging from C2 to C4 and ranging from California to Europe.

Matt began taking square dance lessons with his grandmother in 2004 when he was eleven years old. Singing has always been one of his passions, so after dancing for around ten months, he decided learning how to call was the right thing to do! A year after graduating dance lessons, Matt called his first full tip in 2006. Fast forward to the present, Matt calls multiple dances a month for various clubs across New England. He serves as a director for both the Northeast Callers School (Sturbridge, MA) and the Hayloft Steppers Barn (Sturbridge, MA). He has also served as Program Chairperson for the New England Square and Round Dance Convention. When Matt is not working his day job as an IT Manager, he attends dances, festivals, weekends, and conventions across the country. Matt is also on staff for Rhythm Records.
