Here's an excellent learning resource from Square Dance Calgary. The moves follow the old grouping; the newer Social Square Dance Program borrows from Basic 1, Basic 2, and Mainstream so you'll have to hunt for the moves we're doing.
The following links go to videos from Cyberpoint Marketing for the Mainstream Program. Our club is currently doing the Social Square Dance Program. Moves shown in italics and struck out are not part of our program. Note also that the videos may not follow the SSD teaching order.
