Friendly staff, drop-ins welcome to many of the activities. I travel and have not found such a welcoming fun environment short of a county bar. Assuming you are not already a regular, just check the calendar on the website and pick what works best for you. Before the open dancing they have classes that are basic enough for anyone to participate and have fun. The open dancing is a little tough on newbies if you don't have a partner, you will want a wing-man with some experience or talk to a staffer and they will be happy to help.
