Give your name, organization, phone number, and requested date/time for your performance, and the Team Coordinator will contact you to make arrangements.

Want to be a Dance Team Member?

The Country Steppers are always looking for new members, singles or couples. Team members must have a general understanding of the basics of country-western dance to include two-step, waltz, east and west coast swing, and cha-cha. Anyone wishing to join the team should contact any member of the Country Steppers or contact the Dance Team at steppers@nvcwda.org or 703-860-4941.

The Country Steppers

The Country Steppers are the official demonstration dance team of NVCWDA.

The Steppers take country-western dance into the community by demonstrating all aspects of traditional country-western dance and by teaching the dance basics. The Team consists of approximately 20 members of the NVCWDA. The Steppers are a "Dance Family" that enjoys working together to improve their dancing skills and involving others in this enjoyable, challenging hobby.

Check out some photos of a few of our performances.

The Steppers performances can be scheduled for almost any night of the week, or on the weekends. Since most of the team members work throughout the greater Northern Virginia area, weekends are preferred. However, evening performances are possible if they begin no earlier than 7:30 p.m. Performances have included public events such as county fairs, the Ellipse at the White House and at the National Christmas Tree, nursing homes, schools, charity events, private parties, civic associations, and commercial gatherings.

The Country Steppers will provide their own music and amplifier system. The group has danced on almost any surface, from grass to concrete to blacktop. Yes, we even get the occasional chance to dance on tile or wood floors! To best demonstrate country-western dance, we need sufficient space to hold up to approximately 20 dancers. If you have unique space limitations, please let us know when you schedule a performance and we will plan accordingly.
