Line Dancing with Alpacas

Join us (and our alpacas!) for a fun line dancing class with instructor Darolyn!  The class will happen in our covered riding arena with a sand floor, so it will be on rain or shine.

Darolyn Pchajek (Dar) has been dancing ever since she was 3 years old.  As a child, she took tap, jazz, ballet, and Ukrainian Dancing, and even performed at Folklorama for many years.

She began clogging (similar to tap dancing) in 1998 with the club Cut ‘n Loose. She caught on quickly, and was subbing for her teacher within 2 years. He hung up his clogging shoes, and passed the club onto Darolyn. She re-named it “Dare to Clog” to do a play on her name. She loves teaching as it gives her such a thrill to watch her students catch on to new steps, and enjoy dancing a routine – especially to one she’s choreographed. She likes to post her choreography on YouTube, and have people contact her about dancing her routines (she has heard from people as far away as Germany, France, & Australia!).

She started travelling to teach at different conventions in 2008, and has taught at several workshops throughout Canada & the States, and was chosen as the Featured Instructor for the Australian National Convention in September 2018.

She also took on teaching Zumba, Aqua Zumba, and Line Dancing in the last 15 years, and enjoys sharing her passion of dance.  She is really looking forward to teaching line dancing this summer at Aurora Farms alongside the beautiful alpacas & baby goats.  
