Skinny Dennis - a Texas themed Dive Bar with Live Bands every night. Gathering of diverse people for music, dance, and beers with exposed brick walls, wooden ceiling, country themed artwork & nostalgic beer signs.

All About the Rhythm

Sara Juran grew up in the Ithaca NY area, and was exposed at a young age to Live music by her mother Heather Dunbar- local music champion & radio dj. Her social dancing & teaching has included various forms of Country, Cajun, Zydeco, Swing, and Latin, for 2+ decades. Her genre hopping has given her unique understanding of movement & rhythm.

Live Music Calendar @country_bqe on instagram

EVERY Tuesday at Skinny Dennis (in Williamsburg Brooklyn) at 8PM with a Live Band following at 9PM

EVERY first Sunday at Starr Bar (in Bushwick Brooklyn) with the Slide Stops

Festivals & Events: Grassroots Culture Camp & Festival, Let’s Zydeco, Swamp in the City

From first-time steppers to seasoned shakers, we create a welcoming space.

Classes build the fundamental language of social dance- connecting with music & a partner.
