I am delighted to have the opportunity to express to you how proud we are of you, our youth dancers. The level of enthusiasm you have shown has helped to provide us with the strength and determination to work to improve and expand our youth program. I grew up in square dancing. I know that it isn't always easy to overcome some of the pressure you receive from other non-square dancing youth. All I can tell you from my experience is that what is important is that you feel goo about yourself.
Square dancing is a fun, educational, and healthy activity.
If other youth can't see it that way, it's probably because they never have tried it. Try inviting them to come and watch you dance. I found that the majority of the time their opinion changed. You might even get them to join your next class. As I have already stated it is our intention to help to improve and expand the youth square dance activities.
