Toronto Area Groups

In the GTA, we are very lucky to have a wonderful choice of groups we can join. In a Social Group, you do a number of dances, after briefing by an instructor. There is no need to bring a partner. Different groups are for different levels of dancers. Groups labelled "beginners" welcome even the rawest dancers. Below is a list of the groups sorted by day of week. There is a separate list at the bottom of groups for children.

In addition to these groups, there are classes run by RSCDS Toronto on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday nights.

Below is a list of Toronto Area Social Groups for the 2009/2010 season.
