Michael Maltenfort

Starting his square dancing career with a plus class at a Wilmette club, Michael has been claimed as the longest reining North Shore Squares dancer.  Michael's nimble mind learned the dance programs quickly and eventually turned to a new challenge - calling.  Michael is a mathematics professor and says "For some square dancers like me, mathematics and square dancing are pretty much the same thing...But square dancing has one major advantage over mathematics: it's all about a group of people having fun together." Join us in October as we welcome Michael back to call for our monthly dance.
