German Junior Folk Dancers

Interested in joining our group?
Brüderchen komm tanz mit mir

Many young boys and girls have joined and danced with this group over the years and we are always looking for new members. Children as young as 3 have joined, and teens as old as 18 also have had fun dancing with us. Our new season starts in September, although new members are invited to inquire about joining anytime. Just send an e-mail to Amanda@GermanJuniorFolkDancers.ca



Learning the Schuhplattler
We practice once a week from September to May, with extra practices during the summer holidays for those wanting to take part in the summer performances. Dances vary from simple to complex, some are fast, some are slow. We also have dances for boys only (although seldom enough boys), girls only and groups or couples.
Our emphasis is on having fun with folkdance and we also learn about other German traditions. Parents and dancers always enjoy taking part in our annual 'fun'draisers.

This year, we have a relatively small group, but our boys extend a special invitation to other boys to join, since they have discovered how much fun the 'Schuhplattler' step is and would like to learn and perform a boys-only dance. The "Schuhplattler" (pronounced shoe-plat-ler) is a dance step from southern Germany, that only boys and men do.
