On Bouge, is a french folk dance club. Think of it like a friendly ceilidh with a french twist. We dance several types of dances from different regions of france.
The Bourrée comes from central france and is danced facing a partner in lines or set formations.
The Schottische, Mazurka, Polka, Waltz are popular couple dances danced all over france.
The Breton dances such as Gavotte, Hanter Dro are danced in long snaking lines which intermingle and diverge.
Don’t worry if that sounds complicated, they’re all really easy to learn and we’ll teach you the steps. No partner necessary, but feel free to bring on if you want.
Musicians – develop your repertoire and technique for dance-related music in an informal setting.
