John Wargowsky
Overview
I am a square dance caller (hoedown style, also known as "swap and swing")and lead country, round, line, folk and novelty dances.
* I travel Ohio and into surrounding states.
* Dance programs can be developed to achieve the goals established by the event planner such as fun, getting acquainted, team building, etc.
• Dance programs can be developed for people of all ages and experience levels.
• I specialize in taking just enough time to show people how to dance.
• People just want to have fun and enjoy each other's company, not be an expert.
• I bring music and a sound system.
• You provide electricity within 50 ft, water, eight-foot table and people.

November 29, 2025John was exactly what we wanted!
The range of ages of those attending our party was from 78 years old down to 1 year old. As we had requested, he covered a wide variety of styles of music, from line dances to square dances to polkas to children’s songs to songs from the 50’s and 60’s. It was fabulous!
