Anniversary Dance! Come celebrate 2 years of Brattleboro bal folk! 3:30-5 Music jam session
5-6 Potluck
6-6:30 or 6:40 Beginners' dance workshop/Intro session
6:40-9 Bal (very little teaching)
Fun, accessible French and European traditional dances.
No experience or partner necessary.
Bring your instrument, something to share at the potluck, and your dance shoes! Don't be intimidated by the "very little teaching" label on the last time slot.... come to the intro session and learn the basics, and even if you can't make it to the intro session, we welcome everyone to jump in and figure it out during the bal! At these dances in France, people just kind of look around and see what other people are doing and if they can't figure it out, they make it up! We're all there to have a good time! Please join us!
Since we were so rudely interrupted by a snowstorm in January, our plans to feature a Pandemic Panda photo booth have been rescheduled for March 16, along with our cake and decorations plans. It's going to be really festive! Don't know who Panda is? Come find out!
Live music & dance instruction by Eloise & Co.

Suggested donation sliding scale $12-$25
Dances range from beautiful to raucous. Even if you’ve never tried anything like this before, come on over! Feel free to listen and watch from the sidelines or jump in. We’ll teach you everything you need to know in the intro session, and the crowd has a reputation for being welcoming, eager to draw newcomers into the fun.
Please bring a clean pair of shoes to change into, or clean your shoes off thoroughly once you get inside, before you step onto the dance floor. We want to protect that beautiful wood floor!
We're so excited to have a new video from Ray Sebold that offers a glimpse of the joy of Brattleboro bal folk:
Share our videos with friends to whet their appetite!
