Our evening will include a wide variety of dances; from the repetitive and hypnotic Breton chains, lively and intricate bourrées from central France, rhythmic energetic solo dances from the Pays Basque, couple dances and progressive dances - something for everyone.A review: "I would highly recommend Bal Feirste! You learn regional folk dances from various parts of France in a very relaxed setting, in the company of very friendly, welcoming people from all parts, including France and NI, with a backdrop of live music and some singing too.No need to worry if you think you can’t dance or are coming alone - you’ll be guided as you go along and finding a partner is no problem. Plus many of the dances are group dances. Dancing with Bal Feirste is a great way to meet people, keeps you fit and makes you smile! See you at your next event!
