Welcome to the Eau Claire International Folk Dancers web site!
We meet weekly as a recreational international dance group to dance the dances of many lands.
It's not a class where you have to come for several weeks in a row - just come and join us whenever you'd like to do so.
Everyone is welcome, and no partners are necessary.
Wear comfortable clothing.
Please bring soft-soled, non-marking, clean shoes in order to preserve the wood floor we dance on.
The first Friday of each month is Beginners' Night - all dances are easy and are taught.
Dance Night Information:
- Where: Eau Claire YMCA Fitness and Training Center, 206 Emery St., Eau Claire, Wisconsin (across Graham Avenue from the main YMCA building); Map
- When: Every Friday night at 7:30 PM
- What: Usually the first hour consists of teaching, then review and request dancing follows (though on request nights, all dances are played by request and there's generally no teaching). See the calendar for our dancing schedule which covers two months.
- Cost: $1.00/person (paid to the YMCA for use of the room); may be other costs when we have live music (several times a year)
- Why: For fun, exercise, rhythmic movement, learning more about different cultures, and hearing wonderful world music
- Questions? Feel free to contact us (see the Contact Us page)
