Dean SIngleton

During the Summer of 1979, Dean and his sister, Lisa, were offered a “crash” course in square dancing from his parents prior to attending the National Convention in Milwaukee, WI.  After experiencing the lively spirit of the teen square dancers and really learning how to dance, not to mention being the recipient of numerous Yellow Rocks, Dean was hooked!!
 
A few months later in the Winter of 1979, Dean launched his calling career under the wing of Jack Igel in Minnesota.  He attended Callerlab school with Don Williamson and had a private lesson with Jerry Story to help jumpstart his career!  In the following years, he started a teen club in Rochester, MN, and called and taught lessons for The Wykoff Squares in Wykoff, MN.  During the 1980s, Dean called in Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, South Dakota and Arizona.

Known for his creative choreography, Dean has called at numerous national conventions.  He has held dances in 15 states as well as an Air Force Base in Mannheim, Germany.  An active member of Callerlab, Dean is additionally a member of the National Capital Area Square Dance Leaders Association as well as the Arizona Callers Association.
Currently, Dean is the caller for the Frederick County Promenaders in Mount Pleasant, MD.  Conducting classes and holding demonstration dances, as well as flash mobs, are integral to Dean’s mission to attract a younger audience to Modern Western Style Square Dancing by incorporating progressive music that has a Rock n’ Roll vibe to it!!
 
Dean's high energy style and fresh ideas have landed him a place as a staff caller for Gold Rush Records where he hopes to provide callers with modern music options that were previously unavailable.
