Please note that we are starting at 7:30 PM now, and ending at 10:30 PM.
A party atmosphere will prevail with live and recorded music, your requests, and non-stop folk dancing on a wooden dance floor. We do folk dances from the Balkan countries, including Bulgaria, Macedonia, Greece, Croatia, Serbia, Romania, Turkey, and Albania. We also do some dances from nearby Armenia, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Russia, and sometimes Israel, Sweden, and Denmark, which are far away, but have fun dances.
Feel free to just come as you are. We'll also be teaching dances occasionally and spontaneously during the evening. If there's something you want taught, please ask.
We will have snacks! (Please bring something to share, but no
alcohol.)
We will have your favorite dance music! (Bring your favorite
CD's, MP3 thumb drives, iPods, or smart phones. Sorry, we can't read tapes anymore.)
We have local and out-of-town bands play live music for us when possible. We may even put on a party with a live band on tour. Check this page for updates.
We have an e-mailing list to remind you each month, and to tell you about any updates. if you want to be on our mailing list.
