What to Expect at Mavericks
Open Tuesday through Saturday from 7 PM to 2 AM, Mavericks is a great place to line dance with friends and even learn some new moves. While the main attraction for Mavericks is music, guests can also expect tons of other fun experiences!
First, let’s talk about the bar. If you want a drink, you’ll have plenty of options available. Mavericks has four bars total for all your refreshment needs. There are three indoor bars surrounding the dance floor and another bar outside on the patio for those who prefer to be outdoors.
You can expect lots of room to dance and plenty of water for the dancers if needed. Also, Mavericks offers a quality sound and lighting system that helps bring the dancefloor to life.
Dance Lessons at Mavericks
Mavericks is a large country bar that welcomes all dancers to the floor. Every night it is open there will be your typical Two Step partner dancing and line dancing. For those mainly interested in line dancing, really check out their “Line Dance Tuesdays.”
Tuesday night lessons are between 6:30 and 9 pm. Need a little instruction to get started? Mavericks offers line dance beginner lessons as well as advanced/intermediate classes. The first lesson of the night is an advanced lesson. There is a $5 entry fee ONLY if you come for this advanced lesson. For anyone arriving at 7, there is no cover! So, if just getting started in line dancing, Mavericks has free beginner lessons for you every Tuesday!
To stay in the know about what is current for line dancing at North Mavericks in Pflugerville, check out the Bootstompin’ ATX Facebook page! This is the place where the Tuesday line dance group posts pictures and videos from Tuesday each week as well as invitations to other local line dancing events and excursions to know about!
But if you really want to up your country partner dance game, look to Thursday nights as a good night to come out.
You get dance lessons from local favorites Preston and Aubrey, who are fantastic. You can expect one-step, two-step, and much more from these classes, and the instructors always take requests.
Join them to learn some fun moves to impress your friends on the dance floor. Make sure you get there a few minutes early to sign up and prepare for the lesson.
For dance lessons, don’t worry about not having a partner. Bring a friend with you if you’d like, but it is unnecessary. You will be dancing with several different partners throughout the instruction. Preston and Aubrey will have you switch partners about every ten minutes as they walk around and give individual tips to those trying to learn.
Obviously, on the weekend, the dance floor will really be on fire at a place like Mavericks! If you come on Friday there will also be dance lessons offered. Recently they have featured a great mix of line dancing and couples lessons. They call it their “Austin Dance Expo!” Beginning at 5 pm, during Happy Hour there’s an early line dance lesson. Another line dance lesson at 6 pm and from 6:30-8 pm, couple’s lessons with some line dancing also sprinkled in. Check out what they offer and stay for the evening to dance the night away!
