The Grizzly Rose
5450 North Valley Highway (near 58th/I25)
303-295-1330
35' x 59' Hardwood dance floor
Remarks:
- Although other Denver-area country nightclubs feature larger dance
floors, these floors are irregularly shaped and many experienced dancers
prefer the more standard dance floor at the Grizzly Rose
- Whereas the danceability of the live bands is highly unpredictable,
the pre-band recorded music is often excellent for contemporary country dancing
(esp. Two Step and WCS)
- Due to large crowds, the floor sometimes becomes undanceable after the
band begins (approx. 8pm), especially on weekends.
- The dance floor is unavailable during some group lessons (call ahead)
- Concerts may interfere with dancing (call ahead)
-
Stampede
2430 South Havana
303-696-7686
Large hardwood floor (racetrack shape)
Remarks:
- Stampede does not feature live bands
- The irregularly shaped dance floor sometimes results in traffic problems
between progressive and non-progressive dancers

Cowboys
3910 Palmer Park Blvd
719-596-1212

many of the traffic problems typically associated with racetrack dance floors

from the 1600 sq. ft. cited above
