Do you need dance performers for your event?  Ethnic Dance Chicago can perform ethnic folk dances from many countries at schools, community events, festivals, private parties, corporate events, weddings, etc. 

Our dancers participate in these events because they enjoy performing and learning new dances. Moreover, performing dances is a way to show a new audience how much fun ethnic folk dance can be. 

We can (optionally) include dances that are suitable for audience participation in our performance programs. Audience participation is a great way to engage your group in a program.
