Utah State Folk Dance - Square Dance In 1994, the Utah State Legislature designated Square Dancing to be the state folk dance of Utah . The Utah Code states ...square dancing means the folk dance which is called, cued, or prompted to the dancers, and includes squares, rounds, clogging, contra, line, and heritage dances. The Mormon Pioneers loved to dance and they participated in wholesome entertainment to escape the rigors of the harsh frontier life.
