California's Santa Clara Valley, at the south end of San Francisco Bay, is a hotbed of modern western square dancing and round dancing. No matter your interests, there's a club here for you!

There are clubs for singles and couples, clubs for kids and families, and GLBT-friendly clubs. There are classes for people with no previous square dance experience starting several times each year -- and weekly clubs dancing through C-3A. There are clubs meeting throughout the week, Sunday through Friday -- and a special dance almost every Saturday.
