Dallas International Folk Dancers
Welcome to DIFD
Join us Every Sunday!
Welcome to everyone--young or old, experienced or beginner! Please join us for a fun afternoon of international folk dancing. We meet Sundays from 2 to 4:00 pm at the beautiful Plaza Arts theater. (it has a wood floor for comfortable dancing) in historic downtown Carrollton. (Occasionally we meet instead at at You Can Dance Dallas so be sure to check below in Announcements)
The Dallas International Folk Dancers is a group of enthusiastic dancers who gather for the enjoyment and preservation of recreational folk-dancing. International folk dancing includes the traditional social dances of countries and cultures from around the world. It's fun and great exercise too. We hope to see you soon!

Greetings Villagers,

We celebrated August birthdays last Sunday and had a great turnout for our weekly dance. Thanks to all who brought delicious snacks.
Alan has volunteered to teach the Scottish dance, Mairie’s Wedding to a core group of our dancers outside of our regular meeting time. Due to the fact that it takes a little time to learn the figures, it might be best to learn it before or after our regular meeting time. If you would like to be part of this group, respond to this email and I will give Alan a list of those who are interested.
Need a mid-week fix for folk dancing? Try out the Israeli dancing at Congregation Beth Torah, 720 Lookout Drive in Richardson. Wednesday nights, 7 – 10:00 PM. $5.00
7:00 – 8:00 is beginner dance, and 8:00 – 10:00 is intermediate and advance dancing. Enter through the back entrance of the synagogue (the kitchen entrance). Ring the bell and a dancer will come let you in. Please bring your own water bottle.
