1. A qualified SSD instructor  
2. A location you will be dancing: address and name of facility (if applicable)

Note: There is also a 'Not Ready to Schedule' option (found on the form below the start and end dates when you fill in the info for your SSD class). If you select that option you can defer scheduling your SSD class for a later time. Potential dancers can still view your SSD class on the SquareDanceFun.com website and request to be informed when the SSD class will be scheduled.

OROVILLE, CA., AUG. 8, 2018--Local square dance club, Oroville Promenaders, will be hosting a new Square Dance class with a promotional ‘first class free’ ticket available to first time dancers.

Thinking about trying square dancing? Here is what other newer dancers have to say:

"People who think coffee is adictive have obviously never tried square dancing. After trying it myself, I know this is true. We just can’t get enough of it.” --P Smith

“We were kind of reluctant to try it at first because we didn’t know anything about square dancing, but at the first lesson we ended up forgetting what we didn’t know because we were having so much fun. ” --T Brennon

After your SSD class expires it will remain on the SquareDanceFun.com website for two days before it is automatically deleted. If you would like to manually delete your SSD class for any reason, you may go to your classes page (the same page you used to add your classes). Find the SSD class you'd like to delete and select the red button with an 'x'.

Verify that you'd like to delete your SSD class by selecting the 'OK' button Your class will be removed from the website and be placed in the 'Expired or Deleted Listings' section. You may reactivate these listings at any time.

5) How to Reactivate Deleted SSD Classes

SquareDanceFun.com will keep track of all your listings, including expired or deleted SSD classes. To view those deleted or expired SSD classes, go to your SSD classes page (the same page you used to add your SSD classes) and select 'Show Expired or Deleted Listings' (near the bottom of the page).

To reactivate any of those SSD classes (aka to have them again visible on the website site map), select the class you'd like to update. Update the form with your class's most current information. Be sure to update the dates or you will not be able to update your class. Once you have updated your SSD class, it will again be active on the site map and will no longer show up as an expired or deleted listing.

Note: If you are certain you have expired or deleted listings but the link is not showing, it may be because the listing is a dance or an event or class, rather than a SSD class. To view those listings, you must select the dance or event icon(s) on your admin home page. If you still can't find your listing, feel free to contact our team.
