The Oak Ridge International Folk Dancers meet
throughout the year to learn and enjoy folk dances from many countries
around the world.
The group was started over fifty years ago when the city of Oak
Ridge, Tennessee was first developed during World War II. Our dancers come from Oak Ridge, Knoxville and nearby towns. Occassionally we have visitors from Kentucky and North Carolina. As they say here in East Tennessee "Y'all come!"
Visit us on FACEBOOK.
We do dances from the following countries and more:
Romania,
Bulgaria, England,
Scotland,
France,
Hungary,
Sweden, Norway,
Ukraine,
China, Israel,
Germany,
Ireland, Greece,
Macedonia, Serbia,
Russia,
Mexico,
Slovenia,
Armenia,
South Africa and Japan.
Paul Taylor and other folk dancers in the group teach dances early in the evening; then we do request dancing.
