​​​Vernon's Star Country Squares would like you to join them for Fun, Fitness, & Friendship!
Singles, Couples & Families welcome!
​
Social Square Dancing involves groups of 8 dancers following the direction of a caller. There is no fancy foot work, you just walk to different positions in synchronized motions. The moves are simple and during the dance you will get some exercise and lots of laughter. It's impossible not to smile.
​
There is a variety of music including pop, rock, old and new country. There will be lots of time to meet new friends and socialize. People of all ages are welcome to attend, however adults must accompany any children who are willing to dance.
​
In 12 weeks, every Thursday night from 7 - 9:30, you will learn 50 basic moves which will keep you moving and grooving throughout each night with energetic choreography.
​
It's a great place to belong!
​
Upcoming Events: September 5, 2024 (Beginning of Square Dance Classes)

Will Cullen Performance Studio

​
Owner: Will Cullen, MA Acting and Performance
As a professional performer, I’ve had the opportunity to perform across the world, performing in theatre and street festivals including Fringe, Dance Ontario and InspiraTO. I've been fortunate to collaborate with renowned companies such as the Egyptian Dance Company, Kelowna Nuit Blanche and the Powerhouse Community Theatre.
Recent collaborations include Kelowna Actor's Studio's Glass Menagerie, and ongoing experimental collaborations with Festivals Kelowna and Vernon Haunted House.
When it comes to acting and dance, I believe that movement exploration is key to bringing authenticity to each performance. That’s why I’ve dedicated myself to teaching others the same techniques that have helped me experience performance to the fullest.
​
I offer acting classes privately, as well as group classes for youth, teens, adults and seniors.
