We are a group of single Christians interested in going out dancing in a freindly group setting.  Married couples are also welcome to join us. Any member is very welcome to organize a dance meetup. I think that the group will trend toward partner dancing (swing, salsa, waltz, contra, ect.. ) but we can try anything.  Most of the dances are in the greater Seattle area but it would be great to have some events further south.
