and dance!
Sunday
We host dances for everyone
Whether you love to glide across the ballroom floor to a lyrical waltz, or shake your hips to a groovy salsa, you’ll find a home at USA Dance of North Central New Mexico.
We host social ballroom and Latin dances that bring New Mexicans together. We welcome all dancers, from beginners to competitors, from students to Super Seniors, and from tangueros to Two-Steppers.
We host dances at the Albuquerque Square Dance Center, 4915 Hawkins St. NE, on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of the month. Dances are 3 – 5 p.m., with a lesson at 2:15 p.m. Admission for the lesson and dance is $5 for USA Dance members and $10 for others.
View our calendar on this page to see our dance schedule, and read our news page for updates. Or drop us a line with your questions.
Founded in 2006, we are the local chapter of USA Dance, a national nonprofit organization dedicated to ballroom dancing.
See you on the dance floor!
