Based in Dallas, Texas, NTTDS promotes understanding and appreciation of American folk dancing, its music, its history, and related folklore. We are a group affiliate of the Country Dance and Song Society.
Students of the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) have formed a contra dance club, and are holding contra dances on the first Friday of every month. The dances are FREE and open to everyone. More Details.
Because of the coronavirus restrictions,
all of our dances are CANCELLED until further notice.
The election of officers normally scheduled for Dec 2020 and 2021
has been postponed until we can meet in person for an election. The 2020 officers will continue
in their current roles until the new election.
We welcome everyone to our dances:
adults, families, students, children; you get the idea.
The prices for all weekly dances are:
$10 for non-members, $7 for members, $5 for students with ID, and maximum $25 per family.
DANCE HOTLINE PHONE NUMBER: 972-546-8858.
