Oahu Night Clubbing

Oahu has many night clubs that cater to anyone that wishes to drop in, have a dance and drink. Honolulu may have clubs that cater to one style of dance or demographic of dancers, but more and more clubs diversify their "dance night" with several different styles and themes. There is a definite division in age groups. The under 30 dancing the latest hits to DJ music. The more experienced dancers in the older group dancing the classics to Live Music.

“Social dancers think that where life used to feel overcrowded, it now feels boundless

as the sky. Where they used to feel shackled, they are now free to dance.”

The main specialty dancing in Honolulu is the Bachata - Salsa venue with a little Cha Cha Cha and Merengue on the side. Country Western has a nice country theme nights that will often have a line-dance class early in the evening, so that people can get in their basic moves and join the rest, Swing Dance has a few places and usually includes Eastern and Western Swing dances. These are only a few of the themes you might find when going out nightclub dancing - hip hop nights, rave nights, and more are also common themes.

Then we have the regular run of the mill type program. Night Club dance music such as the Fox Trot, Swing, Waltz, Samba and Tango, the dances from the American Style of Dance, the disciplines of long ago. Most are well liked and danced with enthusiasm. The Even Step is noticeably absent from this type of dance. Fortunately on Oahu we have been fortunate enough to have had some of the best instructors in the American style of dance in the Pacific.

“Social dancers wonder why people want to dance whenever it gets dark and

it is beyond them. Somehow, the two seemed to go together, like bees

and flowers, or flies and dung. Darkness and dancing.”
