When & Where

Country/western dancing for Chicagoland's LGBTQ+ community, our friends, and family.

Check our line dance library to review any dance lessons you might have missed. You can also roll over the images to the right to learn more about the different kinds of dancing we teach and enjoy at Charlie's Chicago.

Line Dance
SCCDA is, at it's heart, a line dance group. While we adore our social dancing, you'll find that line dances comprise half or more of our dancing each dance night. SCCDA offers line dance lessons for both beginners and for more experienced dancers. Our line dance library is a fanstastic resource for new dancers trying to get up to speed.
Two-Step
Other than line dance, the dance most frequentlty seen at SCCDA functions is the country two-step. Quick, quick it will get into your booty and slow, slow you'll find it in your heart, too! Two-step is by far the most common form of country/western social dance. Learn the basic two-step from our amazing instructors.
Other Social Dances
You might be surprised to learn that at SCCDA dances, more than a half-dozen different styles of country/western dancing are represented. Beyond line dancing and two-step, SCCDA dances include both west- and east-coast swing, country waltz, shadow, nightclub two-step, progressive two-step, and even the occasional shuffle! Every country/western dance enthusisast can find something to love here!
Nowhere else will you find so many different ways to identify as LGBTQ+ represented in one place, all together, as a single group!

As we dance, we forge relationships that strengthen us individually and as a community
