Jane Austen Dance

A beloved San Jose tradition returns! Come and enjoy a community dance in the elegant and romantic spirit of Jane Austen at True Fellowship #52 on Saturday, August 9. You’ve likely seen this kind of dance in movies like “Pride and Prejudice”.

Internationally-known dance leader Alan Winston is an Odd Fellow and will lead the room through each dance pattern. No experience or partner necessary; it helps to know right from left, but if you can walk, you can dance.

Please bring shoes with smooth, non-marking soles.

Live music will be provided by the Divertimento Dance Orchestra. Doors open at 6:30, dancing begins at 7:00pm. Period (1790-1820) costume admired but not required; formal or festive wear appreciated. This event is co-sponsored with the Bay Area English Regency Society.

While we can't know the future, we do encourage purchasing your tickets in advance. The last three times we've held this dance, we sold out and had no tickets available at the door.
