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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Our specialties are Barn Dances, Family Dances, Dance Parties for the occasional dancers or the non-dancers, community dances, Contra Dances Beginner's
Balls, and exciting fast paced Mainstream club dancing. We will teach your group all that is necessary to have an exciting evening of good old fashioned fun! As
disciples of Hall of Fame caller Dick Leger, we prompt all our squares. This unique style of calling always gives the dancer the first beat. Exciting duets have
always been the center of our program. We also offer some easy prompted line dances and other dance forms that provide for plenty of variety! We are licensed
by ASCAP and BMI and we are members of the Connecticut callers association and CallerLab. We are best known as "We Duet Right" because all our programs
feature wonderful live harmonies. Most of our calling has been in southern New England, but we have called throughout New England and as far away as Florida,
Nevada, Nebraska, and Oklahoma.

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.
