Testimonials
The SDS GENTS became associated with the organization United Friends To Feed The Homeless 6 years ago and we've had a dual role from day one.
I became a fan of the Gents about 8 years ago! I have always admired their attributes of Gentlemen Quality; by the way they carry themselves. They would ensure that all the Ladies got a chance to dance, if they wanted too. When I attended the 1st Outreach Ball, I enjoyed it so much that I have made it a point to attend every one of them! The Classy, Sophistication, and Upscale Event are one of a kind in the Dance Community! All of the Gents Outreach Efforts in the DFW area, such as Toy drives, Domestic Violence and Breast Cancer Awareness, Back to School Drives, Fans for the seniors, and many other outreach activities are to be commended! I am proud to know you all #Respect #Blessings

The SDS Gents truly believes in service within our community and teamwork, inter/intra cooperation and moving together towards a common vision. I've also had the pleasure to attend several years of their Annual SwingOut Outreach Ball and witnessing their dedication and details of the planning process is absolutely amazing. It is always a complete success and so incredibly FUN!!!

The Gents are welcoming, caring, kind and loving. The personal demeanor of all Gents make them a special unique group. They have found a way to allow each Gent to shine in their own way, yet they remain a strong unit. They care for the Community and they show it by giving and honoring others. Support Determines Success & the Gents are making it happen!

I want to reach out and congratulate the SDS Gents for their past overwhelming successes within the dance community. The well-attended dance events you have sponsored throughout the past years culminating in the major, supreme, exquisite event ending the year captivates the minds and bodies of those in attendance. And once again for your efforts in presenting laptops and awarding scholarships to beginning college students. The outstanding commitment for community service with feeding the homeless and supporting nursing home patients is an outstanding gesture for helping those in need

I am pleased to have this opportunity to express my thoughts and admiration for this group of gentlemen activists. What stands out are examples of their dedication to our community. Most notably, outreach to Seniors in community centers and nursing homes, coordinating services and food for our homeless citizens, back to school drives, promoting health awareness, annual toy drive and support of our youth via scholarships.

There is absolutely nothing like attending an SDS Gents dance event. They're always classy and fun. Each and every Gent is always kind and gentlemanly. They always make sure each and every lady in the rooms feels like a queen. If you like to dance, they will ensure you get a dance. Covid changed the landscape of the dance community so I scaled back quite a bit. But I never miss an opportunity to attend an SDS Gents event. I've attended at least 5 Annual Balls; if I tell you each year gets better and better, that's an understatement at best. The venues are amazing, the entertainment stimulating, and the food is delicious.
