    details: "Copyright: René Schaeffer\nWochenend-Tanzworkshop von Elena Leibbrand (BE)\n \nFranzösische Tänze aus der Gascogne: Branle d’Ossau und Rondeau\nSamstag 15.10.2022              11:00 – 16:30 Uhr\nSonntag 16.10.2022               10:00 – 13:30 Uhr\nPreis für den 2-Tages-Workshop: 31 € regulär / 20€ ermäßigt\n \nIn diesem Workshop beschäftigen wir uns mit zwei sehr beliebten Tänzen aus der Gascogne (Südwest-Frankreich):\nDer Branle d’Osseau sieht zunächst aus wie ein extrem einfacher Kettentanz … bis man ihn ausprobiert. Wie viele von uns haben sich schon in den Tanz eingeklinkt und sind nach ein paar Takten ganz verstört wieder aus dem Tanz ausgestiegen!\nIn diesem Workshop werden wir diesen besonderen Tanz Schritt für Schritt lernen und auch die eine oder andere Variation entdecken. Aber hauptsächlich möchte Elena euch das ganz einzigartige Gefühl vermitteln, das aufkommt, wenn alle zu herzzerreißend schöner Musik in der Kette im Gleichschritt schwingen.\nZur Abwechslung und Auflockerung werden wir den Paar-Rondeau (Rondeau en couple) üben und dabei unseren Grundschritt, Körperhaltung und Stil ein bisschen „aufputzen“. Wir nehmen auch die richtige Bewegung aller Tanzenden im Raum, damit alle Tanzpaare in einem schönen „Flow“ bleiben und werden schließlich typische und schöne Variationen einbauen.\nTanzniveau: Der Kurs ist eher für Tänzer*innen mit Erfahrung geeignet, aber auch für sehr motivierte Anfänger*innen, die den Branle d’Ossau zum ersten Mal entdecken möchten. Der Vorteil an diesen Tänzen ist, dass jede*r seinem/ihrem eigenen Lernrhythmus folgen kann.\nZur Tanzmeisterin: Elena Leibbrand begann 2011 mit großer Begeisterung in Brüssel BalFolk-Tänze weiterzugeben. Im Mai 2018 gründete sie ihre eigene Tanzschule EléDanse und bietet seitdem Kurse, Workshops, Bälle und Veranstaltungen aller Art an. Sie hat eine große Liebe zu Bourrées, Walzern und Tänzen aus dem im Südwesten Frankreichs und sie liebt den Ball, ob Fin-de-Siècle, Folk oder Musette. Elena bringt mit viel Können und Humor den Tanzenden die traditionellen Tänze nahe und reißt alle mit."

    details: "𝗟𝗲𝘁'𝘀 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗽𝘀...\nHeb je je ooit afgevraagd \"Wie ben ik als danser en wie zou ik willen zijn?\"\nDeze 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).\n \nMAX. AANTAL PLAATSEN: 20\nTAAL: Nederlands\nDUUR: 2,5 dag (vrijdag 16.00 uur - zondag 20.00 uur)\nAANMELDEN: dancingbodies\n\n \n𝗪𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲: Een weekend op een besloten locatie om je te verdiepen in dans, je eigen lichaam en een ontwikkelprocessen 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.\n\n \n𝗗𝗲 𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝗱𝗶𝗲 𝗮𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗰𝗵𝘁 𝗸𝗿𝗶𝗷𝗴𝗲𝗻:\nBiomechanica 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…\n\n \n𝗗𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗻𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗿𝘀: 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.\nEr 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.\n\n🅛🅔🅣 🅞🅟: Het instapniveau ligt relatief hoog, twijfel je over je dansniveau? Stuur me een berichtje!\n\n \n𝗗𝗼𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁/𝗕𝗲𝗴𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗶𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴:\nAnke Veens (Dancing Bodies)\n \nVoor een basisbedrag van €260,- krijg je:\nNaast 2,5 dag aan workshops en bezig zijn met dans(en)...\n1x Cursusmateriaal\n2x Broodmaaltijd met diverse soorten beleg, muesli, yoghurt, karnemelk, melk, koffie, thee en fruit, en 's zondags een gekookt eitje.\n2x Soep of een warme snack met een verse salade, broodmaaltijd met diverse soorten beleg, karnemelk, melk, koffie, thee en fruit.\n3x Drie (vegetarische) gangen:\n- Voorgerecht; soep.\n- Hoofdgerecht; warme verse groente, een gevulde salade, rijst/aardappelen, een zelfgemaakt hartig gerecht (zoals quiche of notengehaktballetjes) en een bijbehorende saus of een andere specialiteit van het huis.\n- Dessert; een ambachtelijk bereid lekker toetje!\nOnbeperkt koffie en thee.\n2x Overnachting op locatie in Chambrette; eigen met houtenwanden afgeschermd bed en eigen wastafel op een slaapzaal.\n \nAlternatief zijn de volgende opties beschikbaar:\n\n \tChambrette met Low income korting (30%)\n \tWeekend zonder overnachting €240,-\n \t2-persoonskamer delen (stapelbed) €330,- (zeer beperkt beschikbaar)\n \tPrivekamer €360,-  (zeer beperkt beschikbaar)\n\n \nExtra's:\n \n\n \tLakenpakket €6,-\n \tExtra nacht (incl. ontbijt 7-11) €45,-"

    details: "Folkbal Nijmegen bestaat 15 jaar.\nEn dat vieren met twee dagen feest en zes bands. Deze dagen spelen Hot Griselda, EmBRUN, Wouter Kuyper, Les Bottines Artistiques, Two Catch a Raindrop en Naragonia.  Dans je mee?\nNiet vergeten: op woensdag hebben we pre-party tijdens Balfolk Café Nijmegen met Nebel (NL/ Be) als opwarmer.\n\nHet allereerste Nijmeegse bal vond plaats in 2007, in Café Trianon.  Het smaakte naar meer en we werden opgenomen door Stichting Vlaams Cultureel Kwartier (VCK), onder welke vlag we tot 2019 bals organiseerden. Eerst nog in het eigen pand van het VCK, op de zolder van het Vlaams Arsenaal. We hadden een eigen sleutel en de jamsessie na afloop van een bal mocht rustig tot 4 uur 's nachts duren. Toen het VCK deze ruimte in 2013 afstootte gingen we verder: eerst bals in tangosalon El Corte, vanaf 2015 in de Brebl en Het Danslokaal op het Honigcomplex. In de periode van 2017 tot 2020 organiseerden we bals in het Kolpinghuis.\nSinds 2017 organiseren we ook maandelijks bals samen met Kees van Café the Shuffle. Daar vieren we dan ook graag al deze dansende jaren met dit tweedaagse balfolk feest. Doe je mee?\nVoorverkoop tickets\nPrijs: 26,50 euro per dag\nVoor de vroege vogels is er een aantal \"combi-tickets\" voor beide dagen te bestellen. Deze zijn 46,50.\nKaarten zijn op deze pagina te bestellen. De bestelknop vind je boven aan deze pagina, zie ook de pijl hieronder.\n\n\nTijdsplanning\nAan het tijdschema wordt nog gewerkt. Verwacht globaal:\n\nWoensdag 23 nov pre-party: Balfolk Café met Nebel\n• 19:30 dans uitleg\n• 20:30 Nebel (2 sets)\n\nZaterdag 26 nov:\n• 18:30 – Café open\n• 19:30 – ...\n• 21:30 – ...\n• 23:30 – ...\n• 01:00 – sessie\n\nZondag 27 nov:\n• 12:00 – Café open\n• 13:00 – ...\n• 15:00  – ...\n• 17:00  – ...\n• 18:00  – sessie\n* tijden onder voorbehoud, kan zijn dat begin of eindtijden een uurtje verschuiven.*"

E’ una vera e propria meditazione!

You’ll enjoy our incredible culinary offerings (Thai, Chinese, Indian, Mexican, Ethiopian, Gourmet Pizza, Turkish) and world-class coffee at Cafe Paradiso, all within 1-2 blocks walking distance from the dance! \nImportant: All dancers must be fully vaccinated to attend. Please do not ask for exceptions.  Most likely, for everyone’s safety, we will also require negative covid tests (home tests are fine) 2 days before coming and again on the first day. If everyone complies (please do!) then we may be able to make masks optional. We will have a final decision regarding masks and tests 2 weeks prior to the weekend and will notify all registered dancers.  \nIn order to ensure that we have full attendance (and can therefore afford to pay all the expenses), we are asking everyone to register in advance. So if you know you want to come, please register today. Thank you! \n$175. Includes full weekend and all snacks.\nNote:  This weekend is designed for experienced dancers and attendance is limited. We sell out every year, so PLEASE register soon! \nRegister by sending email to FairfolkDancers “at” gmail “dot” com and then send check payable to Jennifer Hamilton to arrive within 5 business days via snail-mail to:\nFFADC PO Box 1321, Fairfield, Iowa 52556 \nPlease include name, address, phone and email.  We sold out way in advance last time and expect to do so for 2023. Your cancelled check is your receipt—please do not be disappointed if you do not get an email acknowledgement. If you enquire by email, you are not registered until we receive your check! The time/date of your email will be the tie-breaker if we sell out on the day we receive your check. \nWe are delighted to welcome Joanna Reiner Wilkinson back to Fairfield. Many of you enjoyed dancing with her in the past and we are fortunate to welcome her again! \nCancellation / Refund Policy: If you need to cancel for any reason, we will allow you to transfer your personal registration to the next year (for one year only). Or you can send someone—a previously unregistered dancer whom you find—in your place to this current year’s weekend and let us know about the substitution. You handle all the details and work out the payment with your friend. This applies only to the specific weekend you paid for. Other than these two options, unfortunately there are no refunds or exchanges. We simply do not have the volunteer staff to handle these complications. (If you have sent your check late and the dance is full, we will not cash your check.) \nLocation: The Morning Star Studio, 51½ S. Court St. Fairfield, Iowa. Exit 214 coming East on Route 34, then 3 miles West to Main Street, then North to Broadway, East to Court, South on Court St. Or Exit 216 coming West on Route 34, then North on Route 1 (Main St.) to Business 34, then 1 more block north to Broadway, East to Court, South on Court St."

    details: "𝗟𝗲𝘁’𝘀 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗽𝘀…\nHeb je je ooit afgevraagd “Wie ben ik als danser en wie zou ik willen zijn?”\nDeze 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).\n \nMAX. AANTAL PLAATSEN: 16 (nog 2 plekken beschikbaar!)\nTAAL: Nederlands\nDUUR: 2,5 dag (vrijdag 17.00 uur – zondag 20.30 uur + after party)\nAANMELDEN: https://dancingbodies.peggypay.com/intensive-2023-korting\n\nBasis tarief is 275 euro; We hebben geprobeerd de kosten zo laag mogelijk te houden voor iedereen. Kun je meer missen dan gaat dit naar de low income optie mogelijk maken, docenten en/of additionele live muziek, afhankelijk van de giften. Indien je gebruik wil maken op de low income optie kun je 30% korting krijgen op de optie met chambrette. Meer informatie over tarieven via de aanmeldlink.\n\n \n𝗪𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲: Een weekend op een besloten locatie om je te verdiepen in dans, je eigen lichaam en een ontwikkelprocessen 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.\n\n \n𝗗𝗲 𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝗱𝗶𝗲 𝗮𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗰𝗵𝘁 𝗸𝗿𝗶𝗷𝗴𝗲𝗻:\nBiomechanica 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…\n\n \n𝗗𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗻𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗿𝘀: 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.\n\n🅛🅔🅣 🅞🅟: Het instapniveau ligt relatief hoog, twijfel je over je dansniveau? Stuur me een berichtje!\n\n \n𝗗𝗼𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁/𝗕𝗲𝗴𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗶𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴:\nAnke Veens (Dancing Bodies)\nHet onderdeel muzikaliteit zal worden begeleidt door Wim te Groen."

Our dance venue is the beautifully restored 1930s Kimball Ballroom on the Stephens College campus in Columbia, Missouri.  \nFeatured band and caller: A well-known and loved band, Nova is a neo-trad trio hailing from New England and featuring Kathleen Fownes on fiddle, Everest Witman on guitar and mandolin, and Guillaume Sparrow-Pepin on accordion and piano. Nova draws from both traditional repertoire and original compositions to create high-energy music for concerts and dancing. Emily Rush is one of the most sought-after callers in the business, calling with energy and skill: “Contra dancing has always been about connection, inclusivity, joy, and play; as a caller I make that my goal for each gig.” \nTickets: Early Bird pricing available through March 1! Weekend passes good for all weekend events are $105, and $115 after March 1. Register online at Eventbrite or at our website for a la carte pricing for individual dances and workshops, and discounts for students.

  - name: Infinitumball
    details: "\"Infinitum ball\" is the continuous, no-ending process of dancing, learning, and being together. This event will happen for the first time in Lithuania, so we hope to see everyone enjoying an infinite journey together. During the festival, there will be various workshops and dance balls. You will see performers from Lithuania and other European countries on the stage.\r\n\r\nWe would love to see how this festival becomes a tradition and connects Bal folk dancers from all over Europe.\r\nBehind the name:\r\n\r\nAd infinitum :\r\n1. meaning - without end or limit\r\n2. meaning - In context, it usually means \"continue forever, without limit,\" this can be used to describe a non-terminating process, a non-terminating repeating process, or a set of instructions to be repeated \"forever,\" among other uses. 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\n\r\nBallo/ball :\r\n1. 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\n2. 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\nProgram and other info later this year.\r\n\r\nDance is energy – Dance is freedom!\r\n\r\nNotice for Event Participants:\r\nPhotography and Videography Consent: As an attendee, you may be included in photographs and video recordings captured during the event. These materials are intended for promotional and archival purposes. If you prefer not to be featured, please inform us at least two days before the event.\r\n\r\nMore about us: https://www.facebook.com/tradiciniu.sokiu.mokymai\r\nWe would be grateful for your support! https://www.patreon.com/join/Dance_workshops"

    details: "Geef je mail door om op de hoogte gehouden te worden van de opening van de inschrijvingen!\n\nOp de hoogte gesteld worden: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe696R6sKyWB5h_q-sbWXWncgU-d9i07JA-u6bUjvIXrAbS1A/viewform\n\n \n\nWeekend intensive van 15 t/m 17 november\n\n𝗟𝗲𝘁'𝘀 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗽𝘀...\nHeb je je ooit afgevraagd \"Wie ben ik als danser en wie zou ik willen zijn?\"\nDeze 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).\nNa een succesvolle editie in 2022 en 2023, komt er een nieuwe editie eind dit jaar.\nMAX. AANTAL PLAATSEN: 16\nTAAL: Nederlands\nDUUR: 2,5 dag\nAANMELDEN: link volgt\n\n\n𝗪𝗮𝘁 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.\n𝗗𝗲 𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝗱𝗶𝗲 𝗮𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗰𝗵𝘁 𝗸𝗿𝗶𝗷𝗴𝗲𝗻:\nBiomechanica 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…\n𝗗𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗻𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗿𝘀: 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.\nEr 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.\n🅛🅔🅣 🅞🅟: Het instapniveau ligt relatief hoog, twijfel je over je dansniveau?
