The Campbell River Ripple Rockets
​
welcome new dancers to join them at the beginning of
every new dance season, in September of every year.
Why not give it a try?!
... for Fun, Friendship, & Fitness
Square dancing is a low-impact exercise
that improves muscle tone, bone density, balance, coordination, & memory skills.
Add to your daily step count:
several thousand steps, or
2-3 kilometers per night.
No dance experience or special skills
are required - if you can walk,
you can square dance!
Make new friends! in a welcoming,
healthy social environment while
having a great time. The companionship
that square dancing offers is a great
antidote to depression & loneliness.
Square dancing is a great way to
Reduce stress!
Singles & couples are all welcome...
"No partner? No problem!"
Experienced dancers help
"fill out the square".
Parents and students are also welcome,
and students are half price!
Casual attire and comfortable footwear
are all you need.
