DANCERS

The band is ably complemented by our Schuhplattler dance group. We are a volunteer, non-profit Bavarian Schuhplattler and folk dance club. We come from the greater Raleigh, North Carolina area and have approximately 30 active members. We also warmly welcome anyone interested in joining our group. Please email the dance director if you are interested in participating.

The dancers perform original and traditional Bavarian and other German dances. Our Tract is traditional Bavarian. The men dancers wear black lederhosen with green embroidery, wappentrager suspenders, white shirts, green neckties with red floral pattern, green vests with red piping and swallow pockets, alpine or miesbacher hats with feathers or gamsbarts, white trachten kneesocks and gauplattler shoes. The women dancers wear Bavarian blue dirndles with black laced bodice, white aprons, peasant sleeved blouses, white stockings, and miesbacher shoes.
