ReneZ's Site

One of the most informative sites about ballroom dancing for Alabamians is
René Zgraggen's site. As many know, ReneZ is a dance instructor, a well known ballroom dancer, and a very active organizer of dancers and organizations in Montgomery.

His Calendar of dance events, dance sites, instructors in Alabama and some cities in neighboring states such as Mississippi, Louisiana, Florida, Georgia and Tennessee is absolutely the best there is.

So, if you find yourself traveling out of the Birmingham area and have a desire to find dance venue, check out René's CALENDAR

We don't quit dancing because we get old; we get old because we quit dancing.
