As a community we take the health and welfare of our members seriously.
Starting May 1, 2023, unless otherwise noted, we will be not be requiring vaccinations and masks for in-person events. Some dances in May and June may still require masks - check the individual event listings for details. Participants are welcome to bring individually wrapped snacks to share at the break
By participating in our events you are agreeing to be mindful of the safety precautions that limit the spread of disease and to treat others with consideration and respect. Please do not attend if you are not feeling well.
We will still be requesting payment via the BFMS Website
We look forward to singing and dancing together.
"Gentle English" are English country dances from all periods selected to be gentle on the knees, hips, feet, and backs of the dancers. Some dances will be easy, some difficult, but none will stress the joints.
Examples include such favorites as Mr. Isaac's Maggot, Elizabeth, Miss DeJersey's Memorial, Margaret's Waltz, and Alice.
