If dancing is truly the physical expression of the soul's joy, then these are happy folks indeed. Since 1967 the Dannebrog Dancers have been learning and practicing, teaching and performing the traditional folkdances of Denmark, Norway and Sweden.
Though meeting primarily to enjoy their mutual love of dancing, opportunities to perform for others are certainly not ignored. It is a chance to educate others about traditional costumes and the stories behind the dances, the things that improve cultural understanding and broaden the experience of the audience as well.
The dancers meet Friday evenings from September to mid-June at the Danish American Center. It is an open group with no formal membership requirements, and newcomers are always welcome.
