Dancing outdoors!

​

We dance to live music! No partner necessary - a welcoming environment where you can learn the dances on the dance floor.

​

The music is led by a jam leader every week, featuring a repertoire of traditional / folk dance tunes from western Europe (France / Belgium / Great Britain / Scandinavia etc.).

​

Learn the tunes ahead of time by checking out the repertoire lists posted by jam leaders on our Facebook Group Page, or bring your acoustic instrument and learn the melodies by ear in the session. ​

​

*Note: there will be no Balfolk on holiday Mondays May 19, Sep 1, Oct 13 2025. Check our social media for updates!

Dance to live bands in a larger space!
