About Our
Club
Geelong Square Dancers was founded in 1996 and is the longest running square dancing club in Geelong. Over the years, we have taught and danced with people of all ages, from as young as 9 all the way through to 90!
We are a family-friendly club with a strong focus on fun, friendship, and inclusion. New dancers are always welcome, whether you are trying square dancing for the first time or returning after a break. Many of our members start as strangers and quickly become friends.
At Geelong Square Dancers, it is not just about learning the steps. It is about being part of a relaxed, welcoming community where everyone is encouraged to get involved and enjoy the dance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to bring a partner?
Do I need any experience?
Not at all! Our sessions are designed to be beginner-friendly. If you can walk and listen to instructions, you can square dance. We have a “caller” who teaches the moves step-by-step and prompts you on what to do in real-time. No prior dance background is required.
Is there a dress code?
We recommend:
Clothing: Casual, comfortable clothes that allow you to move freely.
Footwear: Your shoes should be comfortable for dancing. For your safety and the safety of others, please do not wear open-toed shoes, sandals, or flip-flops.
Do I need to bring anything with me?
You don’t need to bring a thing. Just bring yourself and some enthusiasm! We provide the music, the instruction, and the fun!
