Scandinavian Folk Dance Classes

Our folk dance classes are held the first, third, and fifth Mondays of each month at Viking Hall. These classes are taught by Ellen Moilanen.  She is a  member of the Nordahl Grieg Leikarrang, a Norwegian folkdance group that is widely  respected in our area as well as in Norway. At each class, beginners are integrated into the dances so all levels of dancers are able to participate in the same class.

Folk dancers from the Cultural Center also participate in many of the programs and celebrations in Santa Cruz dressed in their Norwegian costumes, called bunads. Folk dance classes are sponsored in Viking Hall for all levels of dancers. Folk music is an integral part of our cultural experience --- encompassing singers, actors and musicians who have play the horn, nykleharp, saxophone, accordions and fiddles.

Come and join us!

Dance classes are scheduled for the first, third, and fifth Mondays of each month, 7:30 at Viking Hall, 240 Plymouth St. Santa Cruz.  Call to confirm dates and times.
