Dancers wear what makes them feel happy and festive; some choose attire from the 18th or 19th century. \nThe Ball will be played by Reelplay (Robbin Marcus on piano, Dave Marcus on concertina), and special guest Paul Oorts on guitar, mandolin, bouzouki, accordion. \nMusic at the afternoon practice session will be provided by Elke Baker and Liz Donaldson. The session will run from 2:00-5:00 pm at the Civic Center on the day of the ball and is included in the ball admission fee. \nThe Ball is supported by a generous grant from Montgomery County’s Community Access Program. \nMore information can be found on our website.","links":["https://fsgw.org/washington-spring-ball","https://cdss.org/event/washington-spring-ecd-ball/"],"start":"2024-04-27T14:00:00-04:00","end":"2024-04-27T23:00:00-04:00","country":"USA","state":"MD","city":"Maryland","styles":["ecd"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"bands":["Reelplay","Elke Baker & Liz Donaldson"],"price":"$25-$55","organisation":"Folklore Society of Greater Washington","source":"events/usa/cdss.yaml"},{"name":"Balfolk Stroud","links":["https://balfolkstroud.uk/cps/gigs/confluence-6da95c.php","https://www.facebook.com/events/1407072089931138/"],"start":"2024-04-27T19:30:00+01:00","end":"2024-04-27T22:30:00+01:00","country":"UK","city":"Stroud","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"bands":["Confluence"],"price":"£10","organisation":"Balfolk dans les Cinq Vallées - Stroud","source":"events/uk/balfolk_stroud.yaml"},{"name":"Harrogate Contra","links":["http://harrogatecontra.org.uk/events.html","https://www.facebook.com/events/2104839296538081/"],"start":"2024-04-27T19:45:00+01:00","end":"2024-04-27T22:45:00+01:00","country":"UK","city":"Harrogate","styles":["contra"],"workshop":false,"social":true,"bands":["Contrary Faeries"],"callers":["Bob Morgan"],"price":"£6-10","organisation":"Harrogate Contra","source":"events/uk/harrogate_contra.yaml"},{"name":"Ceilidh Club","links":["https://ceilidhclub.com/event/london-ceilidh-club-27-4-24-queens-gate-house/"],"start":"2024-04-27T20:00:00+01:00","end":"2024-04-27T23:00:00+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"},{"name":"Exeter Ceilidh","links":["https://exeterceilidhs.net/","https://www.facebook.com/events/220274894368326/"],"start":"2024-04-27T20:00:00+01:00","end":"2024-04-27T23:00:00+01:00","country":"UK","city":"Exeter","styles":["e-ceilidh"],"workshop":false,"social":true,"bands":["Banned from the Moor"],"price":"£4-£15","organisation":"Exeter Ceilidhs","source":"events/uk/exeter_ceilidhs.yaml"},{"name":"Dansez Français","links":["http://www.dansezfrancais.org.uk/"],"start":"2024-04-27T20:00:00+01:00","end":"2024-04-27T22:30:00+01:00","country":"UK","city":"Brighton","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"bands":["Les Hirondelles"],"organisation":"Dansez Français","source":"events/uk/dansez_francais.yaml"},{"name":"NACDS Contra Dance","details":"We meet in the gym at Faith Presbyterian Church (corner of Airport & Whitesburg), on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of the month.

Kom de lente vieren met twee geweldige bands!\nZe 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.\n\nOok 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.\nBen 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.\nTijdens 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.

Docent deze week is Leon. Het thema van deze les is de bourreee auvergnate, een dans ook wel bekend als 'bourree in 3' of 'die bourree met die halve maantjes', maar Leon kan daar veel meer over vertellen. Ervaring met deze dans is niet nodig.\n\nProgramma\n\n18.30 Gezamenlijk koken en eten\n19.30: Start socialles\n20.30: Einde socialles, begin vrij dansen\n21.30: Einde\n\nSocialles\nHet 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.\n\nGezamenlijk eten\nVooraf 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.\n\nLocatie\nJe 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.\n\nZaalregels\nIn 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.\n\nPrijs\nDe 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. Pinnen is niet mogelijk.","links":["https://www.balfolk.nl/agenda/socialles-301-rotterdam/"],"start":"2024-05-16T18:30:00+02:00","end":"2024-05-16T22:00:00+02:00","country":"Netherlands","city":"Rotterdam","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"price":"€6","organisation":"balfolk.nl","source":"events/netherlands/balfolk_nl.yaml"},{"name":"Fællesdans","links":["https://www.facebook.com/events/410761758161538/","https://www.place2book.com/en/sw2/sales/9cqhggb9zb"],"start":"2024-05-16T18:30:00+02:00","end":"2024-05-16T22:00:00+02:00","country":"Denmark","city":"Copenhagen","styles":["scandi"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"bands":["Farvergade"],"price":"25-50 DKK","organisation":"Kulturhus Risbjerggaard","source":"events/denmark/copenhagen.yaml"},{"name":"Social dance in Mezrab","details":"Balfolk in de Mezrab\nDe Mezrab host iedere derde donderdag van de maand het leukste Balfolkfeestje van Amsterdam. Bestel hier alvast een ticket en kom dansen op de livemuziek van Airboxes en PFM!\n\nTicket\n- Voorverkoop: 16 euro\n- Aan de deur: 18 euro\nTickets >>>\n\nProgramma\n19:00 Deuren open\n19:30 Dansworkshop voor beginners\n20:30 Bal met PFM!\n21:00 Bal met Airboxes\n23:00 Sessie\n\nBands\n\n \tAirboxes\n\nAirboxes staat voor aanstekelijke dansmuziek gebracht door het duo Bert Leemans en Guus Herremans op chromatisch en diatonisch accordeon.\nBert (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.\nAirboxes speelt enkel eigen werk.\nHun afwisselend intieme solo’s en klankkleurrijk samenspel zorgen voor een allesomvattend geheel.\nAirboxes zijn twee mannen, twee accordeons, één verhaal.\n\n\n \tPFM!\n\nPFM! 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.\nFrans 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.\nMaurits 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.\nPieter 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.\nHet 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.\nAlle drie de bandleden zijn enthousiaste dansers, maar staan ook graag op het podium, daarom zeggen zij: boek ons!\nLocatie\nMezrab 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.

Dit trio, bestaande uit Christian Pacher, Julien Padovani en Alban Pacher, heeft een stevige reputatie onder dansers in Frankrijk en Europa, met zijn unieke muziek die vrolijkheid, energie en feestelijkheid uitstraalt. De muziek van Ciac Boum is energiek en inventief en put uit het traditionele erfgoed van de regio Poitou, waarvan het een erkend ambassadeur is geworden, met zowel covers van traditionele melodieën als originele composities. Elke muzikant is een multi-instrumentalist, dus het podium wordt omgetoverd tot een waar laboratorium waar een enorme verscheidenheid aan geluidspaletten tot uiting wordt gebracht.\n\n\n\n\nAirboxes 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. Hun afwisselend intieme solo’s en klankkleurrijk samenspel zorgen voor een allesomvattend geheel. Airboxes zijn twee mannen, twee accordeons, één verhaal.\n\n\n\n\n\nBen 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.\nTijdens 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!\nVoorlopige planning:\n15:00 Dansinitiatie\n16:00 Airboxes\n18:00 Potluck diner\n19:00 Ciac Boum\n21:00 Einde","links":["https://www.balfolk.nl/agenda/wageningen-junushoff-13/"],"start":"2024-05-19T15:00:00+02:00","end":"2024-05-19T22:00:00+02:00","country":"Netherlands","city":"Wageningen","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"bands":["Airboxes","Ciac Boum"],"price":"€15-€20","organisation":"balfolk.nl","source":"events/netherlands/balfolk_nl.yaml"},{"name":"Dance concert","links":["https://www.tickettailor.com/events/oxfolkceilidhs/991830","https://blowzabella.co.uk/event/5177759/668546533/blowzabella-kennington-village-centre-oxford-oxfolk"],"start":"2024-05-19T16:00:00+01:00","end":"2024-05-19T20:00:00+01:00","country":"UK","city":"Oxford","styles":["balfolk","e-ceilidh"],"workshop":false,"social":true,"bands":["Blowzabella"],"callers":["Jo Freya","Dave Shepherd"],"price":"£8-£18","organisation":"Oxfolk","source":"events/uk/oxfolk.yaml"},{"name":"Bristol French Session and workshop","details":"Balfolk Tunes and Dancing","links":["https://bathfrenchsession.wordpress.com/","https://www.facebook.com/events/1513310665914817/"],"start":"2024-05-19T18:45:00+01:00","end":"2024-05-19T21:45:00+01:00","country":"UK","city":"Bristol","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"price":"free","organisation":"Bath & Bristol French Sessions","source":"events/uk/bristol_bath_french_session.yaml"},{"name":"Balhalla Pinksterbal","details":"Ball","links":["https://www.balhalla.be/en/event/balfolk-with-dron-and-duo-de-schepper-sanczuk","https://folkbalbende.be/event/2122","https://www.facebook.com/events/1560838268106705"],"start":"2024-05-20T15:00:00+02:00","end":"2024-05-20T22:30:00+02:00","country":"Belgium","city":"Gent","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"bands":["Drøn","Duo De Schepper-Sanczuk"],"price":"€10-€19","organisation":"Balhalla","source":"events/belgium/folkbalbende.yaml"},{"name":"French/Breton Dance Night","details":"Bayston Hill Memorial Hall","links":["https://www.facebook.com/groups/708663859216372/posts/7321248247957867/"],"start":"2024-05-20T19:30:00+01:00","end":"2024-05-20T22:00:00+01:00","country":"UK","city":"Shrewsbury","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":false,"social":true,"organisation":null,"source":"events/uk/shrewsbury.yaml"},{"name":"Nordic Dance Lesson","links":["http://www.norskerunddansere.org/dance-lessons.html"],"start":"2024-05-20T19:00:00-07:00","end":"2024-05-20T21:15:00-07:00","country":"USA","state":"OR","city":"Portland","styles":["scandi"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"price":"$10","organisation":"Norske Runddansere","source":"events/usa/portland.yaml"},{"name":"Verjaardagsbal Paul en Dennis","details":"'Lieve mensen!

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.\n\nProgramma\n\n18.30 Gezamenlijk koken en eten\n19.30: Start socialles\n20.30: Einde socialles, begin vrij dansen\n21.30: Einde\n\nSocialles\nHet 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.\n\nGezamenlijk eten\nVooraf 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.\n\nLocatie\nJe 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.\n\nZaalregels\nIn 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.

In de tweede helft van de dansuitleg gaan ze dieper op één dans in.\n\nWat is Balfolk?\nBalfolk 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.\n\nOver Erik en Martijn\nErik 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.\nVoor 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.\nMartijn speelt klarinet en is bekend van de balfolkband Sidaro.\n\nDe 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

Voor ons komen optreden Nachtmuziek en Exqueezit!\n\nNachtmuziek\nNachtmuziek is een swingende combinatie met Tim de Man op piano en Frank van Vliet op trompet (ook bekend van de Gonnagles). Ze geven een eigen draai aan balfolk, met jazzy uptempo en lyrisch verhalend eigen werk.\n\nExqueezit\nExqueezit is het duo Bert Leemans (chromatische knop-accordeon) en Erik de Jong (piano-accordeon). Bert (bekend van o.a. EmBRUN, Elanor en Airboxes) en Erik (bekend van o.a. The Assasenachs, Itchy Fingers en de Gonnagles) leerden elkaar in 2006 kennen op de muziekstage Vliers op Texel, waar Bert aan Erik de fijne kneepjes van het Balfolk spelen liet zien. Toen in 2018 Bert vaker in Noord Nederland te vinden was, kwam hij Erik weer tegen in Irish Pub O'Ceallaigh in Groningen. Al gauw was duidelijk dat de mannen genoten van samenspelen. Hier ontstond dan ook het idee voor een optreden als duo op het 15-jarig jubileum van Balfolk in Café Wilhelmina in Eindhoven. Een half jaar later herhaalde dat zich nog een keer op Elfia Haarzuilens 2019 en zo is Exqueezit ontstaan. Met een wederzijds respect voor elkaars muziekachtergrond en speelstijl (Erik meer Iers/Schots en Bert meer Balfolk), brengen Bert en Erik heerlijke Balfolk met zowel Frans/Vlaamse als Keltische invloeden. Of je nu danst of luistert, het is sowieso genieten.\n\nDansuitleg\nTevoren zal er uiteraard weer een dansuitleg zijn voor degenen die nog niet eerder balfolk hebben gedanst of toch graag nog even een opfrisser willen. Deze zal een uurtje duren, waarbij de meest voorkomende balfolk dansen aan bod komen.\n\nProgramma\nHet programma voor de avond ziet er als volgt uit:\n\n17.30: Deuren open\n18.00 - 19.00: Dansuitleg\n19.00 - 22.30: Bal met Nachtmuziek en Exqueezit\n23.00: Deuren dicht\n\nToegang\nToegang tot het bal kost 25 euro per persoon. Dit kan alleen cash aan de deur worden betaald.\n\nLocatie\nQ-Bus is gevestigd in Leiden. Vlakbij kan geparkeerd worden in een parkeergarage. Check voor de routes met OV en met auto je favoriete routeplanner.","links":["https://www.balfolk.nl/agenda/bal-in-leiden-3/"],"start":"2024-06-01T17:30:00+02:00","end":"2024-06-01T23:00:00+02:00","country":"Netherlands","city":"Leiden","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"bands":["Exqueezit","Nachtmuziek"],"price":"€25","organisation":"balfolk.nl","source":"events/netherlands/balfolk_nl.yaml"},{"name":"Balfolk","links":["https://www.gugelhupf-dresden.de/tanz-in-dresden/"],"start":"2024-06-01T20:00:00+02:00","end":"2024-06-01T23:00:00+02:00","country":"Germany","city":"Dresden","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":false,"social":true,"bands":["KV Express"],"organisation":"Gugelhupf","source":"events/germany/dresden.yaml"},{"name":"Blowout Bal","details":"Part of the Blowout - The Bagpipe Society's annual festival","links":["https://www.bagpipesociety.org.uk/blowout/2024/","https://www.facebook.com/events/722383923441827/"],"start":"2024-06-01T21:00:00+01:00","end":"2024-06-02T00:00:00+01:00","country":"UK","city":"Tamworth","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":false,"social":true,"bands":["Oscina","Deux Terres"],"price":"£10","organisation":"The Bagpipe Society","source":"events/uk/tamworth.yaml"},{"name":"10° Mazurka Klandestina di Konfine","links":["https://www.facebook.com/events/1579056986223846/"],"start":"2024-06-01T22:00:00+02:00","end":"2024-06-02T07:00:00+02:00","country":"Italy","city":"Gorizia","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":false,"social":true,"price":"free","organisation":"Alessia Ferk","source":"events/italy/gorizia.yaml"},{"name":"CarnaBal Des Animaux","details":"Ball","links":["https://stanistil.be/event/11","https://folkbalbende.be/event/2196","https://www.facebook.com/events/1135228301242834/"],"start":"2024-06-02T13:00:00+02:00","end":"2024-06-02T18:00:00+02:00","country":"Belgium","city":"Leuven","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"bands":["Naragonia","Variomatic"],"price":"€13-€25","organisation":"Stanistil","source":"events/belgium/folkbalbende.yaml"},{"name":"Eurobal Wessex","links":["https://www.facebook.com/events/345624888338495/"],"start":"2024-06-02T14:00:00+01:00","end":"2024-06-02T17:30:00+01:00","country":"UK","city":"Bournemouth","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":false,"social":true,"bands":["Confluence"],"organisation":"EuroBal Wessex","source":"events/uk/eurobal_wessex.yaml"},{"name":"Balfolk","links":["https://tanzvolk-leipzig.de/02-06-2024-kv-express-fr/"],"start":"2024-06-02T19:00:00+01:00","end":"2024-06-02T22:00:00+01:00","country":"Germany","city":"Leipzig","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":false,"social":true,"bands":["KV Express"],"price":"€6-€20","organisation":"TanzhausFolk","source":"events/germany/tanzhaus.yaml"},{"name":"French Music & Dance Week","links":["https://halswaymanor.org.uk/event/french-music-dance-week/"],"start":"2024-06-03T16:00:00+01:00","end":"2024-06-07T10:00:00+01:00","country":"UK","city":"Halsway","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"price":"£240-£430","organisation":"Halsway Manor","source":"events/uk/halsway.yaml"},{"name":"Nordic Dance Lesson","links":["http://www.norskerunddansere.org/dance-lessons.html"],"start":"2024-06-03T19:00:00-07:00","end":"2024-06-03T21:15:00-07:00","country":"USA","state":"OR","city":"Portland","styles":["scandi"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"price":"$10","organisation":"Norske Runddansere","source":"events/usa/portland.yaml"},{"name":"Dansavond","details":"Elke dinsdag gaan we gezellig dansen.

Deze les wordt gegeven door Paul en Bo. Zij gaan aan de slag met een lesje 'fusion', waarbij verschillende dansstijlen en technieken met elkaar gemixt kunnen worden tot een nieuwe inspirerende vorm op de dansvloer. Waarschijnlijk zal dit met de scottish gedaan worden. Enige ervaring met de scottish als dans is wel aan te raden.\n\nProgramma\n\n18.30 Gezamenlijk koken en eten\n19.30: Start socialles\n20.30: Einde socialles, begin vrij dansen\n21.30: Einde\n\nSocialles\nHet 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.\n\nGezamenlijk eten\nVooraf 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.\n\nLocatie\nJe 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.\n\nZaalregels\nIn 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.\n\nPrijs\nDe sociallessen kosten 6 euro per persoon. Dit kan cash betaald worden aan de deur.

Deze les wordt gegeven door Fulco, een ervaren balfolk én salsadanser. Vooral met de scottish is het mogelijk veel te doen met salsafiguren en salsa-stijlen en misschien zelfs een nieuwe groepsdansvariatie met een combi van salsa en balfolk? Salsa-ervaring is niet nodig. Voor absolute beginners in de balfolk kan het tempo van deze les mogelijk wat hoog liggen. Vragen hierover? Neem even contact op!\n\nProgramma\n\n18.30 Gezamenlijk koken en eten\n19.30: Start socialles\n20.30: Einde socialles, begin vrij dansen\n21.30: Einde\n\nSocialles\nHet 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.\n\nGezamenlijk eten\nVooraf 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.\n\nLocatie\nJe 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.\n\nZaalregels\nIn 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.\n\nPrijs\nDe 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. Pinnen is niet mogelijk.","links":["https://www.balfolk.nl/agenda/socialles-305-rotterdam-salsa-balfolk/"],"start":"2024-06-13T18:30:00+02:00","end":"2024-06-13T22:00:00+02:00","country":"Netherlands","city":"Rotterdam","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"price":"€6","organisation":"balfolk.nl","source":"events/netherlands/balfolk_nl.yaml"},{"name":"Fællesdans

Deze les wordt gegeven door Leon. De branle de noirmoitier is een fijne groepsdans, boordevol energie en een goed groepsgevoel, maar hoe gaat deze nu eigenlijk precies en hoe haal je er zoveel mogelijk lol uit?\n\nProgramma\n\n18.30 Gezamenlijk koken en eten\n19.30: Start socialles\n20.30: Einde socialles, begin vrij dansen\n21.30: Einde\n\nSocialles\nHet 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.\n\nGezamenlijk eten\nVooraf 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.\n\nLocatie\nJe 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.\n\nZaalregels\nIn 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.\n\nPrijs\nDe 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. Pinnen is niet mogelijk.","links":["https://www.balfolk.nl/agenda/socialles-306-rotterdam-branle-de-noirmoitier/"],"start":"2024-06-20T18:30:00+02:00","end":"2024-06-20T22:00:00+02:00","country":"Netherlands","city":"Rotterdam","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"price":"€6","organisation":"balfolk.nl","source":"events/netherlands/balfolk_nl.yaml"},{"name":"2 Jaar Balhalla, Jubileumbal","details":"Ball","links":["https://www.balhalla.be/en/event/balfolk-with-kv-express","https://folkbalbende.be/event/2123","https://www.facebook.com/events/1588820241887255"],"start":"2024-06-20T19:00:00+02:00","end":"2024-06-20T23:00:00+02:00","country":"Belgium","city":"Gent","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"bands":["KV Express"],"price":"€10-€16","organisation":"Balhalla","source":"events/belgium/folkbalbende.yaml"},{"name":"Social dance in Mezrab","details":"Balfolk in de Mezrab\nDe Mezrab host iedere derde donderdag van de maand het leukste Balfolkfeestje van Amsterdam. Bestel hier alvast een ticket en kom dansen op de livemuziek van Hartwin Dhoore Trio en Duo Baftig!\n\nTicket\n- Voorverkoop: 16 euro\n- Aan de deur: 18 euro\nTickets >>>\n\nProgramma\n19:00 Deuren open\n19:30 Dansworkshop voor beginners\n20:30 Bal met Duo Baftig\n21:00 Bal met Hartwin Dhoore Trio\n23:00 Sessie\n\nBands\n\n \tHartwin Dhoore Trio\n\n\n\nNaast het optreden als soloartiest in een meer fragiele en intieme setting, houdt Hartwin van de magie die musiceren met andere muzikanten met zich meebrengt.\n\nPavel Souvandjiev (Hartwin's neef) groeide op in een muzikaal gezin en speelt viool sinds zijn kindertijd. Na een klassieke muziekopleiding, ontdekte hij als veertienjarige de folkscene. Een circuit waaruit hij niet meer weg te denken is en vooral bekend staat als een van de oprichters van het succesvolle trio ‘Aerokorda'. Zijn uitmuntende viool skills tillen de muziek van het trio naar een hoger universum.\n\n\n\n\nFlavia Escartin (Cello) groeide op op het Catalaanse platteland in een boerderij tussen wijngaarden en prachtige natuurlandschappen. De invloed van deze omgeving maakt haar stijl organisch en onuitsprekelijk. Maar ze heeft ook roots in het Westen. Met haar Belgische moeder bezocht ze regelmatig haar grootouders in Gent en momenteel studeert ze in Amsterdam in Nederland. Flavia treedt ook vaak op met haar zus Laia onder de naam 'Escarteen Sisters' en werkt vaak samen met muzikanten uit de jazz- en wereldmuziekscene. Haar groovy chops en vloeiende boogtechnieken laten het repertoire van het trio swingen als een trein.\n\n\n\n \tDuo Baftig\n\nWat begon als een muzikaal experiment in de zomer van 2022 is nu officieel tot een balfolk muzikanten duo uitgegroeid.\n\nDuo 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!\n\nLocatie\nMezrab 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.\n\nEr is plek voor zo'n 100 dansers.\n\nAdres:\nVeemkade 576\n1019 BL Amsterdam\n\nFotocredit\nHartwin Dhoore","links":["https://www.balfolk.nl/agenda/social-dance-in-mezrab-met-hartwin-dhoore-trio-en-duo-baftig/"],"start":"2024-06-20T19:00:00+02:00","end":"2024-06-20T23:55:00+02:00","country":"Netherlands","city":"Amsterdam","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"bands":["Duo Baftig","Hartwin Dhoore Trio"],"price":"€16-€18","organisation":"balfolk.nl","source":"events/netherlands/balfolk_nl.yaml"},{"name":"10th Anniversary Tour","details":"Floor is apparently not great.","links":["https://www.wegottickets.com/event/603680/","https://www.facebook.com/events/905113061108494/"],"start":"2024-06-20T19:00:00+01:00","end":"2024-06-20T22:00:00+01:00","country":"UK","city":"Wingfield","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":false,"social":true,"bands":["Topette"],"price":"£18.70","organisation":"Topette","source":"events/uk/topette.yaml"},{"name":"Le Festival De La Pouméane","links":["https://balistik.jeremiebt.com/"],"start_date":"2024-06-21","end_date":"2024-06-23","country":"France","city":"Combovin","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"organisation":"Balistik","source":"events/france/balistik.yaml"},{"name":"Halsway Playford Assembly","links":["https://halswaymanor.org.uk/event/halsway-playford-assembly/"],"start":"2024-06-21T16:00:00+01:00","end":"2024-06-23T16:00:00+01:00","country":"UK","city":"Halsway","styles":["ecd"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"bands":["Albireo"],"callers":["Andrew Swaine"],"price":"£190-£310","organisation":"Halsway Manor","source":"events/uk/halsway.yaml"},{"name":"Practica with Initiation","details":"Ball","links":["https://frissefolk.be/en/event-en/practica-with-initiation-mechelen/930/","https://folkbalbende.be/event/2029","https://www.facebook.com/events/282137754742159/307497025539565/"],"start":"2024-06-21T19:30:00+02:00","end":"2024-06-21T23:30:00+02:00","country":"Belgium","city":"Mechelen","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"organisation":"Frisse Folk Vzw/asbl","source":"events/belgium/folkbalbende.yaml"},{"name":"Balfolkcafe Groningen","details":"Er komt opnieuw een balfolk in Groningen!\n\nHartwin (Trio) bij Balfolk Groningen op vrijdag 21 juni 2024\n\nAanvang: 19:30-22:30\n\nEntree: Vrijwillige bijdrage, geef gul voor de band!

In de tweede helft v/d 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.\n\nOver Hartwin (Trio): Hartwin is diatonisch accordeonist en componist. Zijn instrumentale muziek ontroert al vele jaren mensen wereldwijd. Hij staat bekend om zijn eenvoudige en melancholische melodieën die veel ruimte laten voor de verbeelding van de luisteraars en dansers. Samen met Flavia Escartin (cello) en Pavel Souvandjiev (viool) creëert hij een akoestisch universum dat raakt vanaf de eerste noot.

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.\n\nProgramma\n\n18.30 Gezamenlijk koken en eten\n19.30: Start socialles\n20.30: Einde socialles, begin vrij dansen\n21.30: Einde\n\nSocialles\nHet 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.\n\nGezamenlijk eten\nVooraf 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.\n\nLocatie\nJe 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.\n\nZaalregels\nIn 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.\n\nPrijs\nDe 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. Pinnen is niet mogelijk.","links":["https://www.balfolk.nl/agenda/socialles-307-rotterdam-ceilidh/"],"start":"2024-06-27T18:30:00+02:00","end":"2024-06-27T22:00:00+02:00","country":"Netherlands","city":"Rotterdam","styles":["balfolk","e-ceilidh"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"price":"€6","organisation":"balfolk.nl","source":"events/netherlands/balfolk_nl.yaml"},{"name":"Boeuf

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!\n\nProgramma\n\n18.30 Gezamenlijk koken en eten\n19.30: Start socialles\n20.30: Einde socialles, begin vrij dansen\n21.30: Einde\n\nSocialles\nHet 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.\n\nGezamenlijk eten\nVooraf 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.\n\nLocatie\nJe 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.\n\nZaalregels\nIn 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.\n\nPrijs\nDe 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. Pinnen is niet mogelijk.","links":["https://www.balfolk.nl/agenda/socialles-308-rotterdam-grabbelles-kies-jij-maar/"],"start":"2024-07-04T18:30:00+02:00","end":"2024-07-04T22:00:00+02:00","country":"Netherlands","city":"Rotterdam","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"price":"€6","organisation":"balfolk.nl","source":"events/netherlands/balfolk_nl.yaml"},{"name":"Pop-up Ceilidh","links":["https://popupceilidh.co.uk/dates/pop-up-ceilidh-the-bedford-3-2024-07-04/"],"start":"2024-07-04T19:00:00+01:00","end":"2024-07-04T22:15:00+01:00","country":"UK","city":"London","styles":["s-ceilidh"],"workshop":false,"social":true,"bands":["Fiddle Paradiddle"],"price":"£16.50","organisation":"Pop Up Ceilidh London","source":"events/uk/london_miscellany.yaml"},{"name":"Gooikoorts","details":"Ball","links":["http://www.gooikoorts.be/","https://www.facebook.com/events/922383716232144/","https://folkbalbende.be/event/2204"],"start":"2024-07-05T19:00:00+02:00","end":"2024-07-07T23:45:00+02:00","country":"Belgium","city":"Gooik","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":false,"social":true,"bands":["Geronimo","Boreas","Variomatic"],"organisation":"Gooikoorts Folkfestival","source":"events/belgium/folkbalbende.yaml"},{"name":"Ceilidh Club","links":["https://ceilidhclub.com/event/london-ceilidh-club-5-7-24-cecil-sharp-house/"],"start":"2024-07-05T20:00:00+01:00","end":"2024-07-05T23:00:00+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"},{"name":"AberACED","links":["https://aberaced.wordpress.com/"],"start":"2024-07-06T14:30:00+01:00","end":"2024-07-06T16:30:00+01:00","country":"UK","city":"Aberystwyth","styles":["contra","ecd"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"price":"£3","organisation":"AberACED","source":"events/uk/aberystwyth.yaml"},{"name":"2024 Season Closure","details":"Het balfolkseizoen in Zuid-Holland wordt afgesloten met een zomers sessiebal op zaterdag 6 juli. Ook dit seizoen sluiten we weer af met het in de spotlight zetten van muzikanten: de 15 minutes of fame.\n\nOpen podium\nVoor en na het optreden van de band deze avond is het podium voor andere muzikanten. Speel jouw (balfolk)muziek voor de dansers en andere muzikanten op de dansvloer en pak je eigen 15 minutes of fame.\n\nDus ben jij muzikant? Wil je graag jouw muziek aan anderen laten horen, wil je oefenen met spelen voor (dansend) publiek of wil je misschien wel eens samenspelen met een andere muzikant? Het kan allemaal!\n\nAanmelden is handig, dan kan er een planning worden gemaakt. Mail naar balfolkzuidholland@gmail.com jouw naam en welk muziekinstrument jij en je eventuele mede-muzikant(en)spelen.\n\nBal met live-muziek\nBehalve het open podium, komt er ook nog een band live voor ons spelen. Welke band dat zal zijn, maken we later nog bekend.\n\nDansuitleg\nVoorafgaand wordt er nog een algemene dansuitleg gegeven voor degenen die nieuw zijn in de balfolk of hun danspasjes nog wat willen oefenen. Na afloop van het bal en de optredens van de andere muzikanten, is er ook nog ruimte voor sessie.\n\nHet volledige programma ziet er als volgt uit:\n17.00 – 18.00: Picknick\n18.00 – 19.00: Dansuitleg\n19.00 – 20.00: 15 minutes of fame (deel 1)\n20.00 – 21.30: Bal!\n21.30 – 22.30: 15 minutes of fame (deel 2)\n22.30 – 23.00: Sessie/afronding\n\nHet bal is in Rotterdam, in tangoschool Cuartito Azul aan de Schoterbosstraat 17. Toegang kost 10 euro. Bij Cuartito Azul kun je bier, fris en wijn tegen schappelijke prijzen verkrijgen, water is gratis verkrijgbaar.\n\nPicknick\nIedereen die mee wil eten met de picknick, neemt iets lekkers mee voor zichzelf en één of twee anderen. Al het eten dat meegenomen is, wordt op één tafel geplaatst, zodat iedereen wat lekkers kan opscheppen. De ervaring leert dat er meestal ruim voldoende is voor iedereen op die manier.\n\nVragen\nHeb je vragen, tips of opmerkingen?

In de tweede helft van de dansuitleg gaan ze dieper op één dans in.\n\nBart Praet\nThe new solo project of Bart Praet, was given the name “Dawn”. The strings of the mandola are central ... They are accompanied by the emotional sound of the duduk and keys. Every instrument is put through a looping station and some effects are added. This way musical lines are interwoven to form a unity … Sometimes the sound is subdued and soft, sometimes it is sparkling and exuberant. On the menu is totally new folk music, with spicy influences from other genres. The result is a contemporary folk, based on tradition and experiences with and influences by other bands. Early 2023 Bart is releasing a first demo cd for this project. https://bartpraet.be/\n\nWat is Balfolk?\nBalfolk 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.\nDe Kapel\nDe kapel is te vinden als je naar het Oude RKZ (ORKZ) komt in de Emmastraat 15 in Groningen. Wanneer je binnenkomt loop je naar de bar, en rechts van de bar bevindt zich de deur naar de kapel.\n\nAGENDA\nSchrijf de data alvast in je agenda en houd balfolk.nl in de gaten.\n\n18 oktober: Andrea Capezzuoli\n\n15 november: Airboxes\n\n13 december: Tom Moore en Archie Moss\n\n17 januari: Paracetamol\n\n21 februari: Exqueezit","links":["https://www.balfolk.nl/agenda/balfolkcafe-groningen-met-bart-praet/"],"start":"2024-09-20T19:30:00+02:00","end":"2024-09-20T23:00:00+02:00","country":"Netherlands","city":"Groningen","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"bands":["Bart Praet"],"price":"€15","organisation":"balfolk.nl","source":"events/netherlands/balfolk_nl.yaml"},{"name":"TANZhaus WABE","details":"Infos folgen bald…","links":["https://spreefolk.de/events/wabe2024-9"],"start":"2024-09-20T20:00:00+02:00","end":"2024-09-20T23:00:00+02:00","country":"Germany","city":"Berlin","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":false,"social":true,"organisation":"Spreefolk eV","source":"events/germany/spreefolk.yaml"},{"name":"Tanzhaus Innsbruck","links":["https://tanzhaus-innsbruck.jimdofree.com/"],"start":"2024-09-21T19:30:00+02:00","end":"2024-09-21T22:30:00+02:00","country":"Austria","city":"Innsbruck","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"bands":["Haus von Klaus"],"price":"€10-€20","organisation":"Tanzhaus Innsbruck","source":"events/austria/innsbruck.yaml"},{"name":"Dansavond","details":"Elke dinsdag gaan we gezellig dansen.

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.

In de tweede helft van de dansuitleg gaan ze dieper op één dans in.\n\nAirboxes\nEen nieuw duo uit België met oude bekenden: Bert Leemans & Guus Herremans. Deze accordeonisten uit 2 verschillende generaties kennen elkaar al ongeveer 15 jaar en een samenwerking als duo leek dus onvermijdelijk. Airboxes brengt uitsluitend eigen werk in de unieke combinatie van een diatonische en een chromatische accordeon.Hun eerste concert vond plaats begin juli 2017 in Teetzleben (D). Nummer twee was meteen al in Castelfidardo (I), het mekka van het accordeon dus.Na hun passage langs de stage van het Boombalfestival (B) en Boombal Gent intiem (B) zijn ze nu klaar om hun programma voor te stellen aan het grote publiek.\nAirboxes\n\nWat is Balfolk?\nBalfolk 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.\nDe Kapel\nDe kapel is te vinden als je naar het Oude RKZ (ORKZ) komt in de Emmastraat 15 in Groningen.

In de tweede helft van de dansuitleg gaan ze dieper op één dans in.\n\nTom Moore and Archie Moss\nWidely regarded as two of the best players and innovators in traditional folk amongst a precociously gifted generation, Moore & Moss’ finely-crafted arrangements wield a rare potency. Now, having toured with with some of the biggest and brightest acts in the British folk scene, they reconvene to perform as duo.\nTheir second record (released 2020) is set to further unite the deep and resolute harmony of Moss’s accordion with the texture and flow of Moore’s viola; with droning, whirring, sparkling layers of electro-acoustic grit provoking a subtle complexity of palette. Whilst intrinsically borrowing from English and other European traditional dance form, sonically Moore and Moss have their heads firmly in the present, understanding the values of contemporary music and art making. The distinct pulse and intuition of trad-music haunts their playing as they continue to quietly reconsider English instrumental music, listening and responding to the world around them as much as their musical ancestors.\nTom Moore | Archie Moss (tommoorearchiemoss.com)\n\nWat is Balfolk?\nBalfolk 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.\nDe Kapel\nDe kapel is te vinden als je naar het Oude RKZ (ORKZ) komt in de Emmastraat 15 in Groningen.
