SIFD Crescent Beach Folk Dance Retreat

Weekend of October 14-16, 2022

Registration has opened for our 4th in-person Retreat weekend. It will have dance workshops for both beginning and experienced dancers, and lots of opportunities for fun and socializing. We will be asking for volunteers among those attending to teach dances on the weekend. Other activities will likely be bird watching, group walks, a sing-along including rounds and ethnic songs, and a talent show.

One thing we do know is that Saturday evening will be a dance party with Savoir Faire and Balkanski Melos. They are a team of 7 musicians, based in Vancouver, who will play a variety of dance tunes ranging from set dances to Balkan, and including Israeli and French.

There is space for about 50 dancers in Camp Alexandra. The entire weekend including accommodation and meals will be $190 with an early-bird price of $175 if you register by September 5.

Lots of information about the upcoming retreat is available here: surreyfolkdance.org/retreat-2022/
Information about past retreats is available here: surreyfolkdance.org/retreat/.
