Morristown Folkdancers is one of the oldest groups in NJ, and we're still going strong. Come join us!
Our dancing draws from the dance traditions of Eastern and Western Europe, Israel, England, and Scotland. Partners are not needed.
We welcome beginners with a special beginners' session for the first hour. Teaching of more intermediate-level or advanced dances follows, with open dancing after that.
We meet every Wednesday night, 7:30pm till 11:00pm.
Our dancing home is the Community
Church in Mountain Lakes.
Here are
directions as text and here is
a nifty map.
