Sweethearts' Ball / Pink Party
Sunday, February 8
Sundance Saloon

We'll celebrate Valentine's at Sundance Saloon this year with a Pink Party. All you need to do is show up dressed in pink, or red, and maybe with a splash of white. Bring your sweetheart, or find one on the dance floor.

This is mostly otherwise just a night of regular lessons and dancing, but we'll have our delectable chocolate fountain and all the trimmings make its return appearance.

Line Dancers Needed @ SF Ballet
Multiple dates February 11-15
SF Opera House • 301 Van Ness Ave.

We are seeking line dancers for 30 minutes of line dance demonstrations following the performances of the San Francisco Ballet on multiple dates from February 11 to February 15, 2026 (2/11 evening, 2/12 evening, 2/14 afternoon and evening, 2/15 afternoon.) The line dancing group will be fairly small (e.g. six dancers), dancing in the grand lobby as show patrons exit.

We have some open slots, but they vary as folks sign up or cancel. Please complete our interest form and indicate the dates you are available. We will match you up with openings as they become available.

Winter Round-Up
Sunday, February 15
Sundance Saloon

We're using the holiday weekend as an excuse to have a Winter Round-up and hold a line dance extravaganza, with a line dance marathon in the main room from opening at 5:00 pm until 7:15 pm! Come ready with your requests from our regular Sundance Saloon repertoire. (We will include a smattering of "line dance pro" dances in the mix, weighted towards earlier in the evening.)

We'll still have beginning two-step and line dance lessons, moved to the back room on this night. Regular open dancing starts at 7:15.

Free Admission Night
Thursday, February 19
Sundance Saloon

We’ll have free admission on Thursday, February 19, thanks to someone celebrating a birthday who has pre-paid for everyone on that night. We may or may not reveal the name of our benefactor. You'll have to come to Sundance Saloon to find out, or not!

Intermediate West Coast Swing
with Sheila Schlicht
Sunday, February 22: 5:15–6:15 pm
Sundance Saloon: Loft

Sundance Saloon offers a one-hour workshop for intermediate west coast swing on the last Sunday of the month. In February our instructor will be Sheila Schlicht. Attendees should be *completely* comfortable with basic WCS patterns (e.g. side pass, underarm turn, tuck, basic whips).

Unlike most of our lessons in the loft, this class is drop-in, with no advance registration and no additional fee beyond the regular Sundance Saloon admission fee.

Clogging at Sundance Saloon
Thursdays • 6:30–8:30 pm
Sundance Saloon: Loft

The Barbary Coast Cloggers are bringing their clogging classes to Sundance Saloon every Thursday. Lessons in clogging , a form of percussive line dance, take place upstairs in the loft, while our regular programming of two-step and line dance lessons continues on the ground level.

The schedule is:

• 6:30-7:30 - Percussive Line Dance - any level
• 7:30-8:30 - Experienced Level

The experienced level is for those with knowledge of tap, clogging, or Irish dance. The classes are drop-in and there is no additional fee beyond the regular Sundance Saloon admission.

Line Dance Pro
Sundays (except 1st Sun of month) • 5:00–6:30 pm
Sundance Saloon • Back Room

Can't get enough line dancing? Line Dance Pro is an opportunity to increase your line dance abilities and challenge yourself with new line dances not included in our regular Sundance Saloon repertoire.

Our Line Dance Pro sessions run every Sunday in the Back Room of Sundance Saloon (except the first Sunday of the month)! Includes lessons starting at 5:15 pm, except the last Sunday of the month which features a line dance marathon. Check the Sundance Saloon instruction calendar for the schedule. [No line dance pro on Feb. 15 due to the line dance marathon in the main room.]

Volunteer Opportunities

Please help us! Sundance Saloon is a community effort, dependent on lots of people chipping in a little bit. We are always looking for more help. If you have not volunteered in the past, this is a great time to think about stepping in. You can become an integral part of what makes Sundance so special. Our needs at Sundance Saloon include set-up, front door, and coat-check. Shifts are generally one hour. No experience necessary.
