International Folk Dancing (Greenbelt)

Note:  Because of the Covid-19 pandemic all regular classes have been cancelled through and including September 4, 2020.  However we are offering a free International Folk Dance class/party through Zoom on Friday nights from 7:30-9:00pm.  Please see our website for more information Friday Night International Folk Dance Group

We do a variety of line, circle and couple dances mostly from the Balkans, Scandinavia and other parts of Europe. If you’ve ever wondered about music in odd rhythms – like 7, 9 and 11 – come and get hooked on this wonderful music, which includes these great dance rhythms and more. The room where we dance has a beautiful sprung wood floor (please bring a change from your street shoes). We sometimes have special events, including dance workshops and live music nights. Newcomers and beginners are welcome! 

When: (almost) Every Friday night from 8:30 pm - 10:45 pm.  (The group does not meet in August)

We teach dances from 8:30 to approximately 9:00 or 9:15, then have request dancing until 10:45 pm. The first Friday of each month is typically an all-request night (no teaching).
