About Us

We're glad you found us! 


Shoreline-Milwaukee is an LGBT country-western dance club located in Milwaukee, WI. Our mission is to promote country-western dancing in the gay and lesbian community in a fun, positive, and inclusive manner.  We teach line and partner dancing, hold parties, dances, and fundraisers, and perform at LGBT events such as Milwaukee’s Pridefest and LGBT country dance conventions. Shoreline-Milwaukee is a proud member of the International Association of Gay and Lesbian Country Western Dance Clubs (IAGLCWDC). Membership is open to all. 

Please join us for dancing at Hot Water, 818 South Water Street. (link to map)  You don’t need a partner or special attire—just a willingness to join the fun!  Hot Water, owned and operated by Paul Mueller, is a beautiful night club with a large wooden dance floor.

 Our first line dance lesson begins at 8:30 and we usually have a second line dance lesson at 9:30.  There is currently no charge for lessons.  Our DJs play a variety of pop, rock, and country music for line dances and progressive country music for partner dances that include the two-step, waltz, and swing.

Membership dues for 2006-2007 are $15.00. The biggest benefit you’ll receive from being a member is a good feeling from supporting a wonderful LGBT organization. You’ll also be able to vote and perform with Shoreline. If you're interested in membership please click here.
