And unlike bars in the Boston area, people will even talk to you or dance with you if you aren't too pushy or sexist or arrogant. Two DJs per evening spin their own eclectic mix of funk, hiphop, world, pop, salsa, rock, trance, techno, r&b, swing, reggae, blues, tango, you name it... Amazingly relaxed and non-judgmental, full of serious performing dancers in all styles, mixed with everyday people who just love to dance. Chat, watch some amazingly creative dancing, stretch, boogie by yourself, in groups, or with a partner of any persuasion to a rich variety of music. In response to Derek's comments, If you approach the DJ with a request in the last 20 minutes or so of their set, you may get the response that he got, but many of the DJs are happy to honor requests, especially for birthdays & special occasions, especially with some notice. It really is a welcoming caring community, so yes, if one of the DJs or regulars dies unexpectedly, they will take some time to honor them--but such things only happen every few years. Meetings at the middle are for very brief announcements from anyone in the community, then sometimes a brief live performance, a movement or massage workshop, or just more great dance music. If you really love to dance, you'll love this place. : - )

A gay country western dance where everyone is welcome, gay and straight…read more I went to the Saturday dance, there is a Sunday one also. The Saturday dance is $10, with a country western two step lesson at 7pm and a line dance lesson at 7:30pm. The dance is 8-11pm. They offer snacks and you pay for drinks. You enter, pay your fee and fill out a name tag that states if you are a leader, follower or can do both roles. A large venue hall, on the side of the church, the Saturday I went, easily over 100 dancers. There is street parking, so can be a little difficult to find parking. Mostly beginner level dancers. The floor is fast in some spots so can be slick. There is a watching gallery on the second floor and it was nice and cool inside. They played music for country two step, west coast swing, east coast swing, cha cha and waltz. I went on a special night, they had their board elections and a country western gay performance team from NY called the Manhattan Prairie Dogs. It was a great night.

JP Jitterbugs is an open-air dance venue on the shore of Jamaica Pond (at the Jamaica Pond Boat…read moreHouse). The dances occur on some Saturdays and typically start at 4 or 5PM with an hour and a half beginner lesson, followed by a party, typically to live music. The schedule is available at https://sites.google.com/view/jpjitterbugs/events or https://www.facebook.com/jpjitterbugs Logistics: street parking is free and not very hard to find, but be prepared to walk for 1-2 blocks. The boat house is a small two-storey structure (upper level is an open terrace with a roof) at the end of the lake corner of the Pond street, there is typically a pretty large crowd around it. You need to register for event (at the top of the stairs), vaccination is required, mask is optional. You will be fitted with a color-coded bracelet (there is an elaborate signaling ritual, starting with green "I am OK to dance with anyone, masked or not", all the way to the red "I cannot dance with strangers"). On the day I visited, the dance was technically free, with $5-$15 donation suggested. The venue: The band plays on the terrace. There are two dance surfaces: a small dance floor upstairs for a chosen few and a large asphalt surface downstairs for the unwashed masses like me. The latter has one of the most atrocious surfaces to be used for dancing, comparable only to the Lindy in the Park in San Francisco. Leave your good dance shoes at home and avoid any pivots or spins unless you are very sure of what you (and your partner) are capable of. Multiple park benches are available nearby, so sitting down is not an issue. Limited amount of shade is available. The crowd: more than 100 people of very mixed abilities, from absolute beginners to very advanced. Percentage of beginners is pretty high. On the day I visited there were noticeably, but not catastrophically, more followers than leads. Overall: a very high level of fun for an outdoor venue, in my (limited) experience comparable only to Lindy in the Park in the SF Golden Gate park (JP runs less frequently and has fewer onlookers, but it features live music and a pond to marvel at). Highly recommended. If you are a follower and do not know the community, bringing your own lead might be wise. A water bottle will also come handy.
