Tucson VASA Swedish dancers
We are a group of Tucson dancers with a love of Swedish folk dancing.
A few questions we often get are:
-
Do you only perform Swedish dances?
-
No! We enjoy many dances from Norway, Finland, Denmark, Iceland, & beyond.
-
-
Do I need to be Swedish to join?
-
No! Although some of our dancers have Swedish or Scandinavian heritage, many of us are here because we enjoy folk dancing.
-
-
What experience do I need to join?
-
None! We welcome all dancers from beginners to advanced.
-
-
How do I join?
-
Please email Phyllis Gracy at pagracy@comcast.net or message us through our Facebook page Tucson Scandinavian Dancers.
