Dance Parties

Schedule of Dances

Dances take place at the Triphahn Center, 1685 Higgins Rd. Hoffman Estates IL.
Events are normally on the 2nd Saturday of the month, 7:30 - 10:30,
with a dance lesson from 7:30 to 8:15.  


Let's get Spooky!  Join us on Oct. 12 at 7:30 for a howling good hustle lesson with Susan Cole.  General ballroom dancing follows at 8:15 until 10:30. Treats are in the lobby and water in the ballroom. If you are brave, wear a costume, but it is optional and all are welcome.
