Our names are Fred and Ro and  we do line and couples dancing in the Baltimore, Pasadena, Glen Burnie area of Maryland. We hope you will join us at one or more of our venues. If you are new to country dancing you may find it a little difficult the first several times, however, with some work on your part you will be able to have a great time on the dance floor. Perhaps the hardest part is coming to a class/dance the first time. If you are an experienced dancer we can guarantee you will have a fun time. We have a line and couples dance with instruction on Tuesdays and a dance with instruction on Friday evenings.

We also have periodic dances on Saturdays in the Baltimore area at various locations. Details on these events, including directions, can be found in this website. All of the places we teach and dance are smoke-free.
