The Community Building Complex is Finished !!!

Grand Ballroom

The April dance returned to the Community Building Complex and we enjoyed the dancing, sound system and the beauty of the new ballroom. Everyone was amazed by the transformation.

Although we will dance anywhere there is music, ( and sometimes when the music is only in our minds ), we are certainly happy to be back home in Belvidere.

All in attendance at the grand re-opening were in awe of what they were able to do in only four months.

If you did not make the April dance be sure to meet us there on May 22nd and see for yourself how beautiful our new ballroom is.


4th Saturday Dance - Belvidere Community Center

We have the good fortune to have begun our chapter when this great facility was just opening. Its 4500 sq ft hardwood surface is very dance friendly even with over 100 couples on the floor. Our average attendance of just over 100 people, (equiv. to 50 couples), make it a thouroughly enjoyable evening on a spacious, uncrowded dancefloor.


We play properly timed, true tempo dance music for all different ballroom dances and even have a period at the end of the night for attendees to request specific dances and/or bring their own CD's to be played.

The Northern Illinois Chapter of USA Dance, (formerly USABDA), holds its 4th Saturday Dance monthly at the striking, remodeled community center in Belvidere Illinois. The large well managed facility provides us with a wonderful dance floor that has handled even our largest turnout which was over 500 people at our 10th anniversary dance held in (Sept 2006). Please review our calendar for scheduled dances during the year. The 4th Saturday dance begins with a 1 hour ballroom dance lesson from 7 PM to 8 PM taught by one of our local professional dance instructors. This followed by open dancing, several mixers and a show from 8 PM thru 11 PM.

Our events are all alcohol and smoke free.
USA Dance members fee is $6.00, non-members fee is $8.00 and students can participate for $2.00.

Don't forget to look at our 2nd and 4th Saturday Dance photographs!
