View/Sign the Guestbook Great, you made the first step in the right direction and you found our homepage! Now you are curious and want to know what this is all about? This is all about folk music and dancing and having lots of fun! We meet up once a week on Monday nights for all sorts of dancing: some traditional English, Irish and Scottish dances (the stuff you dance at ceilidhs or "barn dances" in plain English) as well as all sorts of International folk dances. During the year we will dance around the world! In Fresher's week we usually hold a Ceilidh with a local band playing live music. This is a great way to have a try it out and to start the academic year... We also go to some ceilidhs in and around Exeter, but the absolute highlight is the IVFDF (pronounced "ifffdifff"). The Inter-Varsity Folk Dance Festival is a weekend packed with folk music and dancing, with ceilidhs, workshops, shows,... Each year it is hosted by a different University. Exeter hosted IVFDF '95 and '99 with great success, and we will host it again in 2004! This year we went all the way up to Sheffield and it was definitely worth every single mile! Now we are all getting ready to welcome to the event to Exeter next February! These weekends are great fun and you usually don't get much sleep at all. Check out our photo page for the evidence! If you play an instrument why don't you join in for some folk music? We meet on Monday nights before the dancing and just enjoy playing together. You don't need to be an expert. All levels are welcome! The same applies to the dancing: Beginners are welcome, no experience is necessary and you don't need to bring a partner. And if you know some dances please show us! We are always keen to try out some new stuff. Membership is only £2.50 per term which works out as 25p per week. A real bargain! The dancing then is free. Only if we have "specials" (like live bands or external instructors) we might charge something extra to cover the costs. Non-members pay £1 per session. For details of how to become a member ask any committee member or send us an email. You can join any time. Just come along on Monday night!

     Extractions: Last Updated 8/8/2003 The Friendly FolkDancers is a group of folk-dancing Quakers who minister through dance. During a typical year, the Friendly FolkDancers organize two major tours (about 10 days long) and one or two mini-tours (usually three-day weekends). They have toured all over the U.S. and in several foreign countries. This is a unique form of ministry that is hard to explain in words. The Friendly FolkDancers Purpose "Friends affirm the sacramental nature of the whole of life when it is under the leading of the Spirit." Dancing in the Light is a source of tremendous joy and spiritual energy that begs to be shared. The Friendly FolkDancers carry this energy to Meetings, churches, and schools in a way that expresses and strengthens our practice as Friends. This practice can be seen in several areas. Worship and Ministry. We seek to live as a spiritual community as we travel. Meeting for Worship with Attention to Business is held daily. A sense of community and worship supports and centers the other aspects of our ministry.
