Docent deze week zijn Wim en Leora. We gaan aan de slag met de polska zoals deze in balfolk gedanst wordt. Geen eenvoudige dans, en meters maken is het advies, maar de stapjes en techniek goed onder de knie krijgen is fijn. Dit is de eerste van twee lessen, volgende week de volgende. Beide lessen zijn los van elkaar te volgen, maar ze beide doen is wel aan te raden vanwege de kracht van de herhaling. Programma 18.30 Gezamenlijk koken en eten 19.30: Start socialles 20.30: Einde socialles, begin vrij dansen 21.30: Einde Socialles Het concept van een socialles is dat er het eerste uur een les of workshop wordt gegeven door een enthousiaste danser of docent over een specifieke dans of thema en dat in de 1,5 uur daarna de tijd is om vrij te dansen op cdmuziek. Uiteraard is er ook volop gelegenheid om te socialisen tijdens het deel vrij dansen. Gezamenlijk eten Vooraf mee-eten is ook mogelijk. Vanaf 18.30 uur ben je welkom in de keuken van De Banier, waarop er een warme maaltijd gekookt en gegeten wordt tot om 19.30 uur de socialles begint. Meehelpen met koken mag en kan natuurlijk. Mee-eten kost 3 euro per persoon, per keer, cash te betalen. Vooraf doorgeven dat je mee-eet is wel handig, dat kan het beste via balfolkzuidholland@gmail.com, tot uiterlijk woensdag 17.00 uur. Geef dan ook direct allergieën of intoleranties door, dan houden we daar rekening mee. Locatie Je kunt ons vinden bij De Banier, gevestigd op Banierstraat 1, in Rotterdam. Deze locatie is op ongeveer tien minuten lopen vanaf Centraal Station Rotterdam. Parkeren in de directe omgeving is betaald tot 23.00 uur ‘s avonds. Verderop in de wijk is het wel gratis, dan moet je dus wel een stukje lopen. Check prettigparkeren.nl voor de mogelijkheden. Zaalregels In de danszaal mogen geen buitenschoenen, zorg dus dat je schoenen bij je hebt die niet buiten worden gedragen zoals dansschoenen of dans op blote voeten of op sokken. Eten in de danszaal is ook niet toegestaan. Prijs De sociallessen kosten 6 euro per persoon. Dit kan cash betaald worden aan de deur. Er is eveneens de mogelijkheid om een strippenkaart aan te schaffen: dat zijn 5 strippen voor 30 euro, op elke socialles te besteden. Dat scheelt je wekelijks geld meenemen.

Schroom dus niet om je instrument te pakken en mee te spelen. Net pas begonnen met muziek of levenslange ervaring? Iedereen is welkom!

Ook de sessie na het bal was volgens ons een enorm succes. Onder leiding van David hebben we nog veel fijne dansen kunnen dansen. Het spreekt dan ook voor zich dat wij nog niet klaar zijn met Drakenbal en graag nog heel veel fijne avonden voor jullie willen organiseren in s'-Hertogenbosch.  Net zoals vorige edities zal er dit keer ook weer ruimte zijn voor een sessie na het bal, dus.... neem vooral je instrumenten mee... !

LIVE BAND 21:00-22:30 Voor nu is de live band nog niet bekend. We hebben verschillende bands voor de verschillende evenementen die wij gepland hebben bij Cafe Station Zuid. Via onze Social Media (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61554737720477) zullen wij jullie op de hoogte houden van de band.

Ook als je niet bij het dansen bent geweest, ben je welkom voor de sessie!

Hij maakt deel uit van de muzikanten die een belangrijke rol spelen in de nieuwe en verdere ontwikkeling van dit instrument in de hedendaagse muziek. Als componist zijn veel van zijn stukken standaardmateriaal geworden in de Franse balfolk scene. Met de haakharp, de Franse doedelzak en haar stem creëert Daniela Heiderich veelzijdige klankwerelden. Daniela studeerde haar instrumenten in traditionele muziek aan het Centre d’Etudes Supérieures Musique et Danse (CESMD) in Poitiers/Frankrijk. Ze hield zich intensief bezig met de geschiedenis en het spel van de rondtrekkende harpspelers die de afgelopen eeuwen door Europa en de wereldbol reisden. In de regio Limousin specialiseerde ze zich in het bespelen van verschillende soorten doedelzakken die daar en in aangrenzende regio’s voorkomen, zoals de Cabrette, de Chabrette of de Cornemuse du Centre.

Let op! Je betaalt contant aan de kassa bij de deur. Mocht je geen contant bij je hebben, dan kun je bij de Albert Heijn aan de Voorstraat pinnen. Bij ons kun je helaas niet pinnen. Losse les kost €5, de losse les is gratis voor de deelnemers van The Winter Classes. Prijzen voor het bal: \t€13,- (Normaaltarief), \t€15,- (Fair-Trade), \t€10,- (Kortingstarief). Fair Trade Vind jij het belangrijk dat docenten en muzikanten eerlijk betaald worden? En, wil je dat Balfolk Utrecht kwaliteit levert? Neem dan Fair Trade! Want, goede docenten en muzikanten verdienen meer dan basic theebiscuits bij hun koffie. Verleid ze naar onze events met galettes. Daarom Fair Trade :) Overig We hebben een garderobe waar je je spullen kunt achterlaten. Laat je spullen niet op de banken liggen. De bar van de Moira is gesloten. Voel je vrij om je eigen drank mee te nemen. We vragen je om na het einde, de Moira stilletjes te verlaten en geen geluid te maken voor het gebouw. Richtlijnen Wij willen graag dat iedereen bij Balfolk zich vrij voelt om zichzelf te zijn en zich veilig voelt om aan te geven wat ze nodig hebben. We vinden het daarom belangrijk dat iedereen die naar onze bals komt op de hoogte is van een aantal richtlijnen waar we ons aan houden. Zo maken we de community voor iedereen zo veilig en fijn mogelijk. De richtlijnen voor onze bals: Dansrichtlijnen. Locatie Het vindt plaats in de Moira, een fijne zaal in het centrum van Utrecht. Het adres is Wolvenstraat 10 (aan het einde van de Plompetorengracht). Je moet de blauwe deur hebben aan de rechterkant. Dan kom je via de trap naar beneden in de zaal. Er is geen lift. ** English ** We end the season with Duo Chabenat / Heiderich with hook harp, hurdy-gurdy and singing. This will be preceded by a single lesson, the subject of which we will announce later. Gilles Chabenat is without a doubt one of the most renowned hurdy-gurdy players. He is one of the musicians who play an important role in the new and further development of this instrument in contemporary music. As a composer, many of his pieces have become standard material in the French balfolk scene. With the hook harp, french bagpipe and her voice, Daniela Heiderich creates multifaceted sound worlds. Daniela studied her instruments in traditional music at the Center d'Etudes Supérieures Musique et Danse (CESMD) in Poitiers/France. She dealt intensively with the history and playing of the itinerant harp players who have traveled through Europe and across the globe over the past centuries. In the Limousin region she specialized in playing various types of bagpipes native there and in neighboring regions, such as the Cabrette, the Chabrette or the Cornemuse du Centre. https://youtu.be/vJ-TvB7HWZs https://youtu.be/Xi6Opq-r0q4 Programme 19:00 – Walk-in 19:10 – start single lesson 20:10 – end single lesson 20:15 – Duo Chabenat / Heiderich 21:45 – End 22:00 – Closure Reservation and Prices You do not need to make a reservation. You choose at the door which rate you want to pay. NB! You pay cash at the door. If you do not have cash with you, there is an ATM at Albert Heijn on Voorstraat. There is no pin option at our cash register. Single lesson costs €5, but it is free for the participants of The Winter Classes. Prices for the ball: \t€13,- (normal rate), \t€15,- (Fair Trade), \t€10,- (discount rate). Fair Trade Do you think it is important that teachers and musicians are paid fairly? And, do you want Balfolk Utrecht to deliver quality? Pay Fair Trade! Because, good teachers and musicians earn more than basic tea biscuits with their coffee. Seduce them to our events with galettes. Therefore Fair Trade :) Remainder We have a cloakroom where you can leave your belongings. Do not leave your belongings on the couches. The bar of Moira is closed. Feel free to bring your own drinks. We ask you to leave the Moira quietly after the end and not to make any noise in front of the building. Guidelines We want everyone at Balfolk to feel free to be themselves and feel safe to express their needs. We therefore think it is important that everyone who comes to our balls is aware of a number of guidelines that we adhere to. In this way we make the community as safe and pleasant as possible for everyone. The guidelines for our balls: Guidelines. Location It takes place in the Moira, a nice hall in the center of Utrecht.

Het zijn weinig voorkomende balfolkdansen, maar ze zijn wel ontzettend leuk om samen te dansen en mede daarom brengen we ze graag onder de aandacht. Voorkennis van deze dansen is niet nodig, gewoon lekker meedoen! Programma 18.30 Gezamenlijk koken en eten 19.30: Start socialles 20.30: Einde socialles, begin vrij dansen 21.30: Einde Socialles Het concept van een socialles is dat er het eerste uur een les of workshop wordt gegeven door een enthousiaste danser of docent over een specifieke dans of thema en dat in de 1,5 uur daarna de tijd is om vrij te dansen op cdmuziek. Uiteraard is er ook volop gelegenheid om te socialisen tijdens het deel vrij dansen. Gezamenlijk eten Vooraf mee-eten is ook mogelijk. Vanaf 18.30 uur ben je welkom in de keuken van De Banier, waarop er een warme maaltijd gekookt en gegeten wordt tot om 19.30 uur de socialles begint. Meehelpen met koken mag en kan natuurlijk. Mee-eten kost 3 euro per persoon, per keer, cash te betalen. Vooraf doorgeven dat je mee-eet is wel handig, dat kan het beste via balfolkzuidholland@gmail.com, tot uiterlijk woensdag 17.00 uur. Geef dan ook direct allergieën of intoleranties door, dan houden we daar rekening mee. Locatie Je kunt ons vinden bij De Banier, gevestigd op Banierstraat 1, in Rotterdam. Deze locatie is op ongeveer tien minuten lopen vanaf Centraal Station Rotterdam. Parkeren in de directe omgeving is betaald tot 23.00 uur ‘s avonds. Verderop in de wijk is het wel gratis, dan moet je dus wel een stukje lopen. Check prettigparkeren.nl voor de mogelijkheden. Zaalregels In de danszaal mogen geen buitenschoenen, zorg dus dat je schoenen bij je hebt die niet buiten worden gedragen zoals dansschoenen of dans op blote voeten of op sokken. Eten in de danszaal is ook niet toegestaan. Prijs De sociallessen kosten 6 euro per persoon. Dit kan cash betaald worden aan de deur. Er is eveneens de mogelijkheid om een strippenkaart aan te schaffen: dat zijn 5 strippen voor 30 euro, op elke socialles te besteden. Dat scheelt je wekelijks geld meenemen.

Zij verzorgen een bal vol levensverhalen, vrouwen en eeuwenoude bomen. De zelfgeschreven teksten van Camille, door Simon verwerkt in folkarrangementen, nodigen uit om een repertoire van originele liedjes te ontdekken, geïnspireerd door traditionele dansmuziek. Betreed de kring van vrouwen, ontmoet La Réveilleuse bij het draaien in een wals, dans een mazurka onder een kastanjeboom en verlies jezelf in het bos met een avant-deux! \tDuo Baftig Wat begon als een muzikaal experiment in de zomer van 2022 is nu officieel tot een balfolk muzikanten duo uitgegroeid. Duo Baftig speelt zeer dansbare tunes op akkoestische gitaar en viool. Manon en Robin delen een passie voor balfolk dans en folk muziek en besloten van hieruit hun krachten te bundelen. Het duo speelt verassende mix tussen Ierse/Scandinavische tunes, maar ook eigen explosieve composities. Van melancholisch tot krachtig, voor alles geldt: zolang het maar Baftig is! Locatie Mezrab draagt Balfolk een warm hart toe en nodigt ons iedere maand uit te komen dansen. Je kunt in de Mezrab op andere dagen vooral terecht voor storytelling. Het café dient als inspiratiebron voor vele theaters, centra, musea en festivals om ook storytelling te programmeren. Mezrab programmeert meerdere keren per week regelmatig vertelavonden. Op de andere avonden wordt storytelling gecombineerd met andere kunstdisciplines (dans, beeldende kunst, poëzie, etc.) en een wereldmuziekprogramma. Er is plek voor zo'n 100 dansers.

Until he discovered balfolk and the tremendous possibilities this dance family offers, both for delving into European musical traditions and hybridizing them with other dance styles. He has attended balfolk concerts, workshops, and festivals since 2010 and has been conducting national and international workshops for over ten years.\r \"Div Plet\" includes Lou Carrig on accordion, Isabel Sokol-Oxman on gadulka and violin, Damian Diaz Merlis on guitar, and Stiu Ivanov on percussion and kaval. The members come from different parts of the world, including Ireland, the USA, Argentina, and Bulgaria, but they all share a passion for traditional Bulgarian music.\r \"Bal do Mero\" is a trio of violin, clarinet, and accordion born from the restlessness and love of three musicians for folk music and dance. Sara Caballero, Rodrigo Nosequé, and Silvia von Nadie decide to shape this underwater folk fable for which they compose songs with various rhythms, always inspired by the weightlessness of the seabed.

Na een drie heerlijke middagen met muziek van Duo Noordwest in oktober en Sparv in december en een bruisende middag in februari met meer dan 10 muzikanten, is het deze keer de beurt aan de Hunebend. De Hunebend bestaat uit Michele van Baaren en Marieke van der Hoek op viool en Joke Bakker op cello. Zij spelen prachtige Zweedse dansmuziek, traditioneel én eigen creaties, die je later thuis ook kunt beluisteren op hun CD Bortlängtan. In het eerste deel van deze middag (ca. 3 kwartier) zullen er een aantal basispassen van verschillende Zweedse dansen worden uitgelegd. Na iedere uitleg kan deze dans dan door iedereen gedanst of verder geoefend worden. NB. het is géén apart workshop-blok. We verweven de uitleg in het bal, zodat iedereen vanaf het begin mee kan doen.

Programma 18.30 Gezamenlijk koken en eten 19.30: Start socialles 20.30: Einde socialles, begin vrij dansen 21.30: Einde Socialles Het concept van een socialles is dat er het eerste uur een les of workshop wordt gegeven door een enthousiaste danser of docent over een specifieke dans of thema en dat in de 1,5 uur daarna de tijd is om vrij te dansen op cdmuziek. Uiteraard is er ook volop gelegenheid om te socialisen tijdens het deel vrij dansen. Gezamenlijk eten Vooraf mee-eten is ook mogelijk. Vanaf 18.30 uur ben je welkom in de keuken van De Banier, waarop er een warme maaltijd gekookt en gegeten wordt tot om 19.30 uur de socialles begint. Meehelpen met koken mag en kan natuurlijk. Mee-eten kost 3 euro per persoon, per keer, cash te betalen. Vooraf doorgeven dat je mee-eet is wel handig, dat kan het beste via balfolkzuidholland@gmail.com, tot uiterlijk woensdag 17.00 uur. Geef dan ook direct allergieën of intoleranties door, dan houden we daar rekening mee. Locatie Je kunt ons vinden bij De Banier, gevestigd op Banierstraat 1, in Rotterdam. Deze locatie is op ongeveer tien minuten lopen vanaf Centraal Station Rotterdam. Parkeren in de directe omgeving is betaald tot 23.00 uur ‘s avonds. Verderop in de wijk is het wel gratis, dan moet je dus wel een stukje lopen. Check prettigparkeren.nl voor de mogelijkheden. Zaalregels In de danszaal mogen geen buitenschoenen, zorg dus dat je schoenen bij je hebt die niet buiten worden gedragen zoals dansschoenen of dans op blote voeten of op sokken. Eten in de danszaal is ook niet toegestaan. Prijs De sociallessen kosten 6 euro per persoon. Dit kan cash betaald worden aan de deur. Er is eveneens de mogelijkheid om een strippenkaart aan te schaffen: dat zijn 5 strippen voor 30 euro, op elke socialles te besteden. Dat scheelt je wekelijks geld meenemen.

Aufgewachsen in der Balfolk-Szene hat er die Tanzmusik als Tänzer kennengelernt, und das spürt man bei seinen Auftritten unmittelbar. Sein Rhythmusgefühl führt die Tänzer:innen nahezu blind. Wouter Kuyper spielt bei Tanzveranstaltungen gewöhnlich ohne eine feste Setlist und lässt sich vom Geschehen im Raum inspirieren. Geleitet von der Reaktion seines Publikums erzeugt er so eine wunderbare Atmosphäre. Ein Mann und sein Akkordeon, in intensiver Verbindung mit den Tänzer:innen vor ihm… Im Alter von zehn Jahren nahmen ihn seine Eltern erstmals zu einem Folkfestival mit – nun tourt er durch die Tanzsäle Europas, entweder Solo oder mit seinen Bands ‚Wouter en de Draak‘, ‚Geselscap Goet ende Fyn‘ (Alte Musik) und ebenso mit BmB, Androneda und anderen. Heute ist Wouter Kuyper bei uns als Solo-Musiker zu Gast. Wir erwarten viele seiner eigenen Kompositionen, die auf traditionellen Balfolk-Rhythmen basieren, ob swingendem Scottish, intimer Mazurka, verträumtem Walzer (gerne auch ungerade), rockiger Bourrée, Polka, Polska, Hanter-Dro und vielen anderen.

Kom de lente vieren met twee geweldige bands! Ze stonden al lang op ons verlanglijstje, en komen in april eindelijk naar Nederland: Caamaño&Ameixeiras! Sabela Caamaño (chromatische accordeon) en Antía Ameixeiras (viool en zang) vormen dit geweldige duo uit Galicië dat rootsmuziek en dans verweeft. Sinds hun oprichting in 2018 heeft dit duo een intens traject doorlopen, zowel nationaal en internationaal. Met traditie als uitgangspunt slagen zij erin om hun eigen unieke taal te creëren, met persoonlijke en levendige composities en arrangementen waarin de essentie van traditionele muziek centraal staat, gemengd met een goede dosis moderne invloeden en emotie. Ook Laouen was al een tijd een wens, en we zijn erg blij dat ze voor ons komen spelen! De wegen van Bert Leemans (chromatische accordeon) en Ies Muller (houten dwarsfluiten, bombarde) kruisten elkaar al vaak in allerlei projecten, en het werd hoogste tijd voor een duo. Voilá, hier is het! In een fijne dynamische melange vloeien Bretonse, Franse en Ierse melodieën, traditioneel en eigen werk, naadloos in elkaar over. De muziek van dit duo brengt je naar een andere wereld en nodigt meteen uit tot dansen. Ben je een nieuwe danser? Om 15:00 beginnen wij met een uurtje dansuitleg! Entree: Regulier €20, korting €15. Betalen kan contant of via een QR-code. Reserveren is niet nodig, er zijn altijd genoeg kaartjes beschikbaar. Tijdens het bal is er een gezellige picknick. Neem hiervoor vooral wat lekkers mee, dan delen we dat met z'n allen. Vergeet je bordje, bestek en opscheplepels niet. Een waterflesje om de dorst te lessen tijdens het bal is ook aangeraden. Neem zelf geen andere dingen mee, de bar verkoopt genoeg lekkere drankjes!

Alcohol is niet toegestaan. Tussen 19:30 en 20:00 nemen we de tijd om beginners wat basispassen te leren of technische vragen over dansen te beantwoorden.

Programma 18.30 Gezamenlijk koken en eten 19.30: Start socialles 20.30: Einde socialles, begin vrij dansen 21.30: Einde Socialles Het concept van een socialles is dat er het eerste uur een les of workshop wordt gegeven door een enthousiaste danser of docent over een specifieke dans of thema en dat in de 1,5 uur daarna de tijd is om vrij te dansen op cdmuziek. Uiteraard is er ook volop gelegenheid om te socialisen tijdens het deel vrij dansen. Gezamenlijk eten Vooraf mee-eten is ook mogelijk. Vanaf 18.30 uur ben je welkom in de keuken van De Banier, waarop er een warme maaltijd gekookt en gegeten wordt tot om 19.30 uur de socialles begint. Meehelpen met koken mag en kan natuurlijk. Mee-eten kost 3 euro per persoon, per keer, cash te betalen. Vooraf doorgeven dat je mee-eet is wel handig, dat kan het beste via balfolkzuidholland@gmail.com, tot uiterlijk woensdag 17.00 uur. Geef dan ook direct allergieën of intoleranties door, dan houden we daar rekening mee. Locatie Je kunt ons vinden bij De Banier, gevestigd op Banierstraat 1, in Rotterdam. Deze locatie is op ongeveer tien minuten lopen vanaf Centraal Station Rotterdam. Parkeren in de directe omgeving is betaald tot 23.00 uur ‘s avonds. Verderop in de wijk is het wel gratis, dan moet je dus wel een stukje lopen. Check prettigparkeren.nl voor de mogelijkheden. Zaalregels In de danszaal mogen geen buitenschoenen, zorg dus dat je schoenen bij je hebt die niet buiten worden gedragen zoals dansschoenen of dans op blote voeten of op sokken. Eten in de danszaal is ook niet toegestaan. Prijs De sociallessen kosten 6 euro per persoon. Dit kan cash betaald worden aan de deur. Er is eveneens de mogelijkheid om een strippenkaart aan te schaffen: dat zijn 5 strippen voor 30 euro, op elke socialles te besteden. Dat scheelt je wekelijks geld meenemen.

Ticket - Voorverkoop: 16 euro - Aan de deur: 18 euro Tickets >>> Programma 19:00 Deuren open 19:30 Dansworkshop voor beginners 20:30 Bal met PFM! 21:00 Bal met Airboxes 23:00 Sessie Bands \tAirboxes Airboxes staat voor aanstekelijke dansmuziek gebracht door het duo Bert Leemans en Guus Herremans op chromatisch en diatonisch accordeon. Bert (chromatisch) en Guus (diatonisch) zijn perfect op elkaar ingespeeld, de klanken van hun instrumenten smelten samen bij alles wat ze spelen en nemen je mee naar een magische wereld. Airboxes speelt enkel eigen werk. Hun afwisselend intieme solo’s en klankkleurrijk samenspel zorgen voor een allesomvattend geheel. Airboxes zijn twee mannen, twee accordeons, één verhaal. \tPFM! PFM! is een energieke balfolkband uit het westen van het land. De band is in 2020 ontstaan en bestaat uit Frans op klarinet, Maurits op viool en Pieter op gitaar (en een beetje trekzak). Er worden voornamelijk eigen composities gespeeld. Frans is het meest actief in het schrijven van nieuwe nummers. Hij zoekt de variatie op door te experimenteren met toonladders, maar weet ook nog origineel te zijn binnen A-mineur. Geregeld bedenkt hij iets wat later eigenlijk te moeilijk blijkt om zelf te spelen, maar dat weerhoudt hem er niet van blijven proberen excellente composities te produceren. Frans heeft ervaring in verschillende bandsettingen en actief in Balfolk Amsterdam; hij geeft dansles en mede-organiseert bals, waaronder de maandelijkse dansavond in café Mezrab. Maurits is een klassiek geschoold virtuoos violist en het muzikale geweten van de band. Hij weet meestal precies te duiden waar muzikale verbeteringen zitten. Verder speelt hij graag sessie. Pieter was actief binnen pop, punk en kleinkunst, maar speelt sinds 2010 voornamelijk balfolk en PFM is zijn alweer derde bandje. Hij is een enthousiast slaggitarist en probeert de twee solo-instrumenten begeleidend tegelijkertijd voor gitarist en drummer te spelen. Het trio speelt onder andere rechttoe-rechtaan cercle’s, swingende scottishes en hoekige hanterdro’s, maar ook zachte smeuïge mazurka’s en een verstilde gavotte de ‘l Aven. Er wordt geconcentreerd op de meest gangbare balfolkdansen zodat alle balfolkies het hele optreden op de dansvloer kunnen blijven. Alle drie de bandleden zijn enthousiaste dansers, maar staan ook graag op het podium, daarom zeggen zij: boek ons! Locatie Mezrab draagt Balfolk een warm hart toe en nodigt ons iedere maand uit te komen dansen. Je kunt in de Mezrab op andere dagen vooral terecht voor storytelling. Het café dient als inspiratiebron voor vele theaters, centra, musea en festivals om ook storytelling te programmeren. Mezrab programmeert meerdere keren per week regelmatig vertelavonden. Op de andere avonden wordt storytelling gecombineerd met andere kunstdisciplines (dans, beeldende kunst, poëzie, etc.) en een wereldmuziekprogramma. Er is plek voor zo'n 100 dansers.

Docent deze week is Isobel. Het thema deze week draait om connectie met je danspartner en leiden en volgen, gerelateerd aan switch dansen: wisselen van rol als leider of volger, gedurende de dans of voorafgaand aan de dans. Let op: deze les is in het Engels, maar geen zorgen, er zijn genoeg mensen om voor je te vertalen. Enige ervaring met leiden en volgen is wel fijn voor deze les. Programma 18.30 Gezamenlijk koken en eten 19.30: Start socialles 20.30: Einde socialles, begin vrij dansen 21.30: Einde Socialles Het concept van een socialles is dat er het eerste uur een les of workshop wordt gegeven door een enthousiaste danser of docent over een specifieke dans of thema en dat in de 1,5 uur daarna de tijd is om vrij te dansen op cdmuziek. Uiteraard is er ook volop gelegenheid om te socialisen tijdens het deel vrij dansen. Gezamenlijk eten Vooraf mee-eten is ook mogelijk. Vanaf 18.30 uur ben je welkom in de keuken van De Banier, waarop er een warme maaltijd gekookt en gegeten wordt tot om 19.30 uur de socialles begint. Meehelpen met koken mag en kan natuurlijk. Mee-eten kost 3 euro per persoon, per keer, cash te betalen. Vooraf doorgeven dat je mee-eet is wel handig, dat kan het beste via balfolkzuidholland@gmail.com, tot uiterlijk woensdag 17.00 uur. Geef dan ook direct allergieën of intoleranties door, dan houden we daar rekening mee. Locatie Je kunt ons vinden bij De Banier, gevestigd op Banierstraat 1, in Rotterdam. Deze locatie is op ongeveer tien minuten lopen vanaf Centraal Station Rotterdam. Parkeren in de directe omgeving is betaald tot 23.00 uur ‘s avonds. Verderop in de wijk is het wel gratis, dan moet je dus wel een stukje lopen. Check prettigparkeren.nl voor de mogelijkheden. Zaalregels In de danszaal mogen geen buitenschoenen, zorg dus dat je schoenen bij je hebt die niet buiten worden gedragen zoals dansschoenen of dans op blote voeten of op sokken. Eten in de danszaal is ook niet toegestaan. Prijs De sociallessen kosten 6 euro per persoon. Dit kan cash betaald worden aan de deur. Er is eveneens de mogelijkheid om een strippenkaart aan te schaffen: dat zijn 5 strippen voor 30 euro, op elke socialles te besteden. Dat scheelt je wekelijks geld meenemen.

In de tweede helft van de dansuitleg gaan ze dieper op één dans in. Wat is Balfolk? Balfolk is misschien een beetje te vergelijken met een tango- of salsa-avond, maar dan met de muziek en dansen van hier: de dansen en muziek die traditioneel in West-Europa voorkomen. En er is altijd live muziek! En we starten altijd met een dansuitleg. Iedereen kan meedoen. Over Erik en Martijn Erik de Jong is een veelzijdig folk muzikant die vooral actief is in de Ierse/Schotse scene, maar ook binnen andere folkstijlen zoals balfolk en Balkan-muziek. Instrumenten die hij daarbij bespeelt zijn accordeon (als hoofdinstrument), whistles, bodhrán en draailier. Voor dansers spelen heeft Erik altijd het leukste gevonden om te doen. Daar is hij mee begonnen in de Nederlandse balfolkband ‘De Gonnagles’. Later is hij samen met Carieke Pol veel ceilidh-workshops gaan doen (Schotse dansworkshops) op bruiloften, feesten en festivals, zoals de Celtic & Balfolk Night in De Doelen in Rotterdam, en de Elf Fantasy Fairs in Arcen en Haarzuilens. Naast Ierse/Schotse muziek speelt Erik ook nog steeds graag balfolk, bijvoorbeeld met de duo’s Itchy Fingers (met Tijn Berends) en Exqueezit (met Bert Leemans), waarmee hij o.a. op balfolkfestival Cadansa heeft gespeeld. Voor meer informatie over Eriks muzikale activiteiten, zie www.folkmuzikant.nl. Martijn speelt klarinet en is bekend van de balfolkband Sidaro. De kapel is te vinden als je naar het Oude RKZ (ORKZ) komt in de Emmastraat 15. Wanneer je binnenkomt loop je naar de bar, en rechts van de bar bevindt zich de deur naar de kapel.""" links = ["https://www.balfolk.nl/agenda/balfolk-groningen-met-erik-de-jong-en-martijn-versteeg/"] start = "2024-05-24T19:30:00+02:00" end = "2024-05-24T23:00:00+02:00" country = "Netherlands" city = "Groningen" styles = ["balfolk"] workshop = true social = true bands = ["Erik en Martijn"] price = "€15" organisation = "balfolk.nl" source = "events/netherlands/balfolk_nl.yaml" [[events]] name = "Bal @ Cellule" details = "Ball" links = ["https://frissefolk.be/en/event-en/bal-kv-express-cellule/952/", "https://folkbalbende.be/event/2108", "https://www.facebook.com/events/1817561215360601"] start = "2024-05-24T20:00:00+02:00" end = "2024-05-25T01:00:00+02:00" country = "Belgium" city = "Brussels" styles = ["balfolk"] workshop = true social = true bands = ["KV Express"] price = "€14-€23" organisation = "Frisse Folk Vzw/asbl" source = "events/belgium/folkbalbende.yaml" [[events]] name = "Ceilidh Club" links = ["https://ceilidhclub.com/event/london-ceilidh-club-24-5-24-cecil-sharp-house/"] start = "2024-05-24T20:00:00+01:00" end = "2024-05-24T23:00:00+01:00" country = "UK" city = "London" styles = ["s-ceilidh"] workshop = false social = true price = "£17-£23" organisation = "London Ceilidh Club" source = "events/uk/ceilidh_club.yaml" [[events]] name = "Meet Me in St Louis" links = ["https://childgrove.org/stl-dance-weekends/meetmeinstlouis", "https://www.facebook.com/events/871111018094385/"] start = "2024-05-24T18:00:00-05:00" end = "2024-05-27T15:00:00-05:00" country = "USA" state = "MO" city = "Webster Groves" styles = ["contra"] workshop = true social = true bands = ["Audacious", "Roger Wilco"] callers = ["Bob Isaacs"] price = "$50-$110" organisation = "TryContra" source = "events/usa/trycontra.yaml" [[events]] name = "Polska and Other Swedish Dances" details = "Course" links = ["https://frissefolk.be/en/event-en/polska-and-other-swedish-dances/985/", "https://folkbalbende.be/event/2187", "https://www.facebook.com/events/391264367050007/"] start = "2024-05-25T13:15:00+02:00" end = "2024-05-25T18:15:00+02:00" country = "Belgium" city = "Mechelen" styles = ["scandi"] workshop = true social = false price = "€20-€55" organisation = "Frisse Folk Vzw/asbl" source = "events/belgium/folkbalbende.yaml" [[events]] name = "Balfolk im Hardtbergsaal" details = "Balfolk" links = ["http://balfolk-bonn.de/balfolk/Aktuell.html"] start = "2024-05-25T15:00:00+02:00" end = "2024-05-25T22:00:00+02:00" country = "Germany" city = "Bonn" styles = ["balfolk"] workshop = true social = true bands = ["Loogaroo"] price = "donation" organisation = "Balfolk Bonn e.V." source = "events/germany/bonn.yaml" [[events]] name = "Folk & Dance at Lietzensee" details = """ meet the TTUN TTUN* Bourrée Party Crackers – Foto: Christina Glanz    Fête du Rondeau Ein Abend mit Tänzen aus dem französischen Südwesten: Rondeau en Couple und Rondeau en Chaine umrahmt von weiteren Folk-Tänzen Ort: Nachbarschaftshaus am Lietzensee, Herbartstraße 25, 14057 Berlin Der Eintritt ist kostenlos – Spenden für Tanz und Musik sind aber willkommen.

Programma 18.30 Gezamenlijk koken en eten 19.30: Start socialles 20.30: Einde socialles, begin vrij dansen 21.30: Einde Socialles Het concept van een socialles is dat er het eerste uur een les of workshop wordt gegeven door een enthousiaste danser of docent over een specifieke dans of thema en dat in de 1,5 uur daarna de tijd is om vrij te dansen op cdmuziek. Uiteraard is er ook volop gelegenheid om te socialisen tijdens het deel vrij dansen. Gezamenlijk eten Vooraf mee-eten is ook mogelijk. Vanaf 18.30 uur ben je welkom in de keuken van De Banier, waarop er een warme maaltijd gekookt en gegeten wordt tot om 19.30 uur de socialles begint. Meehelpen met koken mag en kan natuurlijk. Mee-eten kost 3 euro per persoon, per keer, cash te betalen. Vooraf doorgeven dat je mee-eet is wel handig, dat kan het beste via balfolkzuidholland@gmail.com, tot uiterlijk woensdag 17.00 uur. Geef dan ook direct allergieën of intoleranties door, dan houden we daar rekening mee. Locatie Je kunt ons vinden bij De Banier, gevestigd op Banierstraat 1, in Rotterdam. Deze locatie is op ongeveer tien minuten lopen vanaf Centraal Station Rotterdam. Parkeren in de directe omgeving is betaald tot 23.00 uur ‘s avonds. Verderop in de wijk is het wel gratis, dan moet je dus wel een stukje lopen. Check prettigparkeren.nl voor de mogelijkheden. Zaalregels In de danszaal mogen geen buitenschoenen, zorg dus dat je schoenen bij je hebt die niet buiten worden gedragen zoals dansschoenen of dans op blote voeten of op sokken. Eten in de danszaal is ook niet toegestaan. Prijs De sociallessen kosten 6 euro per persoon. Dit kan cash betaald worden aan de deur. Er is eveneens de mogelijkheid om een strippenkaart aan te schaffen: dat zijn 5 strippen voor 30 euro, op elke socialles te besteden. Dat scheelt je wekelijks geld meenemen.

Programma 18.30 Gezamenlijk koken en eten 19.30: Start socialles 20.30: Einde socialles, begin vrij dansen 21.30: Einde Socialles Het concept van een socialles is dat er het eerste uur een les of workshop wordt gegeven door een enthousiaste danser of docent over een specifieke dans of thema en dat in de 1,5 uur daarna de tijd is om vrij te dansen op cdmuziek. Uiteraard is er ook volop gelegenheid om te socialisen tijdens het deel vrij dansen. Gezamenlijk eten Vooraf mee-eten is ook mogelijk. Vanaf 18.30 uur ben je welkom in de keuken van De Banier, waarop er een warme maaltijd gekookt en gegeten wordt tot om 19.30 uur de socialles begint. Meehelpen met koken mag en kan natuurlijk. Mee-eten kost 3 euro per persoon, per keer, cash te betalen. Vooraf doorgeven dat je mee-eet is wel handig, dat kan het beste via balfolkzuidholland@gmail.com, tot uiterlijk woensdag 17.00 uur. Geef dan ook direct allergieën of intoleranties door, dan houden we daar rekening mee. Locatie Je kunt ons vinden bij De Banier, gevestigd op Banierstraat 1, in Rotterdam. Deze locatie is op ongeveer tien minuten lopen vanaf Centraal Station Rotterdam. Parkeren in de directe omgeving is betaald tot 23.00 uur ‘s avonds. Verderop in de wijk is het wel gratis, dan moet je dus wel een stukje lopen. Check prettigparkeren.nl voor de mogelijkheden. Zaalregels In de danszaal mogen geen buitenschoenen, zorg dus dat je schoenen bij je hebt die niet buiten worden gedragen zoals dansschoenen of dans op blote voeten of op sokken. Eten in de danszaal is ook niet toegestaan. Prijs De sociallessen kosten 6 euro per persoon. Dit kan cash betaald worden aan de deur. Er is eveneens de mogelijkheid om een strippenkaart aan te schaffen: dat zijn 5 strippen voor 30 euro, op elke socialles te besteden. Dat scheelt je wekelijks geld meenemen.

Zij verzorgen een bal vol levensverhalen, vrouwen en eeuwenoude bomen. De zelfgeschreven teksten van Camille, door Simon verwerkt in folkarrangementen, nodigen uit om een repertoire van originele liedjes te ontdekken, geïnspireerd door traditionele dansmuziek. Betreed de kring van vrouwen, ontmoet La Réveilleuse bij het draaien in een wals, dans een mazurka onder een kastanjeboom en verlies jezelf in het bos met een avant-deux! \tDuo Baftig Wat begon als een muzikaal experiment in de zomer van 2022 is nu officieel tot een balfolk muzikanten duo uitgegroeid. Duo Baftig speelt zeer dansbare tunes op akkoestische gitaar en viool. Manon en Robin delen een passie voor balfolk dans en folk muziek en besloten van hieruit hun krachten te bundelen. Het duo speelt verassende mix tussen Ierse/Scandinavische tunes, maar ook eigen explosieve composities. Van melancholisch tot krachtig, voor alles geldt: zolang het maar Baftig is! Locatie Mezrab draagt Balfolk een warm hart toe en nodigt ons iedere maand uit te komen dansen. Je kunt in de Mezrab op andere dagen vooral terecht voor storytelling. Het café dient als inspiratiebron voor vele theaters, centra, musea en festivals om ook storytelling te programmeren. Mezrab programmeert meerdere keren per week regelmatig vertelavonden. Op de andere avonden wordt storytelling gecombineerd met andere kunstdisciplines (dans, beeldende kunst, poëzie, etc.) en een wereldmuziekprogramma. Er is plek voor zo'n 100 dansers.

Deze les wordt gegeven door René en Isobel. We maken deze keer een uitstapje naar een net wat andere dansstroming dan de balfolk, namelijk de Ceilidh-dansen. Groepsdansen, veelal eenvoudig, met een caller die omroept wat je precies doet, met simpele stapjes, veel lol en af en toe wat chaos (maar niet te veel). Ervaring met ceilidh is niet nodig. Programma 18.30 Gezamenlijk koken en eten 19.30: Start socialles 20.30: Einde socialles, begin vrij dansen 21.30: Einde Socialles Het concept van een socialles is dat er het eerste uur een les of workshop wordt gegeven door een enthousiaste danser of docent over een specifieke dans of thema en dat in de 1,5 uur daarna de tijd is om vrij te dansen op cdmuziek. Uiteraard is er ook volop gelegenheid om te socialisen tijdens het deel vrij dansen. Gezamenlijk eten Vooraf mee-eten is ook mogelijk. Vanaf 18.30 uur ben je welkom in de keuken van De Banier, waarop er een warme maaltijd gekookt en gegeten wordt tot om 19.30 uur de socialles begint. Meehelpen met koken mag en kan natuurlijk. Mee-eten kost 3 euro per persoon, per keer, cash te betalen. Vooraf doorgeven dat je mee-eet is wel handig, dat kan het beste via balfolkzuidholland@gmail.com, tot uiterlijk woensdag 17.00 uur. Geef dan ook direct allergieën of intoleranties door, dan houden we daar rekening mee. Locatie Je kunt ons vinden bij De Banier, gevestigd op Banierstraat 1, in Rotterdam. Deze locatie is op ongeveer tien minuten lopen vanaf Centraal Station Rotterdam. Parkeren in de directe omgeving is betaald tot 23.00 uur ‘s avonds. Verderop in de wijk is het wel gratis, dan moet je dus wel een stukje lopen. Check prettigparkeren.nl voor de mogelijkheden. Zaalregels In de danszaal mogen geen buitenschoenen, zorg dus dat je schoenen bij je hebt die niet buiten worden gedragen zoals dansschoenen of dans op blote voeten of op sokken. Eten in de danszaal is ook niet toegestaan. Prijs De sociallessen kosten 6 euro per persoon. Dit kan cash betaald worden aan de deur. Er is eveneens de mogelijkheid om een strippenkaart aan te schaffen: dat zijn 5 strippen voor 30 euro, op elke socialles te besteden. Dat scheelt je wekelijks geld meenemen.

Deze les wordt gegeven door Noelia. Het is de laatste les van het seizoen en daarom is de keuze aan jou! Op een bord staan alle dansen die we gedaan hebben en/of kunnen uitleggen: de groep bepaalt welke we nog even herhalen of uitleggen. Zelf suggesties? Laat het ons weten! Programma 18.30 Gezamenlijk koken en eten 19.30: Start socialles 20.30: Einde socialles, begin vrij dansen 21.30: Einde Socialles Het concept van een socialles is dat er het eerste uur een les of workshop wordt gegeven door een enthousiaste danser of docent over een specifieke dans of thema en dat in de 1,5 uur daarna de tijd is om vrij te dansen op cdmuziek. Uiteraard is er ook volop gelegenheid om te socialisen tijdens het deel vrij dansen. Gezamenlijk eten Vooraf mee-eten is ook mogelijk. Vanaf 18.30 uur ben je welkom in de keuken van De Banier, waarop er een warme maaltijd gekookt en gegeten wordt tot om 19.30 uur de socialles begint. Meehelpen met koken mag en kan natuurlijk. Mee-eten kost 3 euro per persoon, per keer, cash te betalen. Vooraf doorgeven dat je mee-eet is wel handig, dat kan het beste via balfolkzuidholland@gmail.com, tot uiterlijk woensdag 17.00 uur. Geef dan ook direct allergieën of intoleranties door, dan houden we daar rekening mee. Locatie Je kunt ons vinden bij De Banier, gevestigd op Banierstraat 1, in Rotterdam. Deze locatie is op ongeveer tien minuten lopen vanaf Centraal Station Rotterdam. Parkeren in de directe omgeving is betaald tot 23.00 uur ‘s avonds. Verderop in de wijk is het wel gratis, dan moet je dus wel een stukje lopen. Check prettigparkeren.nl voor de mogelijkheden. Zaalregels In de danszaal mogen geen buitenschoenen, zorg dus dat je schoenen bij je hebt die niet buiten worden gedragen zoals dansschoenen of dans op blote voeten of op sokken. Eten in de danszaal is ook niet toegestaan. Prijs De sociallessen kosten 6 euro per persoon. Dit kan cash betaald worden aan de deur. Er is eveneens de mogelijkheid om een strippenkaart aan te schaffen: dat zijn 5 strippen voor 30 euro, op elke socialles te besteden. Dat scheelt je wekelijks geld meenemen.

It may also be used like the Latin phrase et cetera to denote written words or a concept that continues for a lengthy period beyond what is shown. Examples include:\r \r Ballo/ball :\r 1. meaning - The Ballo was an Italian dance form during the fifteenth century, most noted for its frequent tempo and meter changes. The name ballo has its origin in Latin ballo, ballare, meaning \"to dance,\" which in turn comes from the Greek \"βαλλίζω\" \"to dance, to jump about.\" In Greece, there is a Greek dance named Ballos.\r 2. meaning - Ballroom dances are social dancing, popular since the beginning of the 20th century, to dances in conventional rhythms ( ballroom dances) such as the foxtrot and the quickstep.\r Program and other info later this year.\r \r Dance is energy – Dance is freedom!\r \r Notice for Event Participants:\r Photography and Videography Consent: As an attendee, you may be included in photographs and video recordings captured during the event.

Heb je je ooit afgevraagd \"Wie ben ik als danser en wie zou ik willen zijn?\" Deze intensive is een danservaring die (ervaren) dansers ertoe leidt hun volledige potentieel te bereiken om hun dans te ontwikkelen en dieper te duiken in beweging, lichaamscontrole en co-creatie (improvisatie). Na een succesvolle editie in 2022 en 2023, komt er een nieuwe editie eind dit jaar. MAX. AANTAL PLAATSEN: 16 TAAL: Nederlands DUUR: 2,5 dag AANMELDEN: link volgt 𝗪𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲: Een weekend op een besloten locatie om je te verdiepen in dans, je eigen lichaam en een ontwikkelproces aan te gaan met behulp van gespecialiseerde workshops. Met veel persoonlijke aandacht en gerichte oefeningen. Een intensive onderscheidt zich van een enkele workshop in een totaal opbouw met dieper detailniveau waarop wordt gewerkt. Met persoonlijke feedback uit de groep en van docent(en). De intensive is gericht op dansers die willen groeien en vanuit een technischere basis willen leren bewegen. Met als doel uiteindelijk meer vrijheid in hun dans te kunnen vinden (betere connectie en meer variatie). De duur van de intensive geeft de mogelijkheid om langer stil te staan bij onderwerpen en te werken met ervarend leren. Waarbij ruimte wordt gemaakt voor het invullen van een persoonlijk leerdoel. 𝗗𝗲 𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝗱𝗶𝗲 𝗮𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗰𝗵𝘁 𝗸𝗿𝗶𝗷𝗴𝗲𝗻: Biomechanica en natuurwetten, danshouding en basis danstechniek (denk o.a. aan balans en spierspanning), consent, connectie en improvisatie (en muzikaliteit). De focus ligt hierbij niet op danspassen maar op beweging en lichaamscontrole en belangrijkste nog wel de communicatie binnen een danskoppel. Hoe dans je samen, in plaats van hoe dans ik mét iemand… 𝗗𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗻𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗿𝘀: Deelname is geschikt voor dansers uit de social dance scene. Basis ervaring in de rol van leiden OF volgen is noodzakelijk en kennis van de meest voorkomende dansen binnen Balfolk is gewenst. In de intensive wordt van een danser gevraagd om zichzelf te evalueren en ook anderen van feedback te voorzien. Belangrijk is dus dat je bij deelname open staat voor zelfontwikkeling. Er wordt gewerkt met een beperkte groepsgrootte zodat er ruimte is voor voldoende persoonlijke aandacht van de docent en wisselen in de groep zodat we vooral ook van elkaar kunnen leren, waarbij de deelnemers ook zelf aangeven waar ze op willen ontwikkelen.
