„Dancing is the poetry of the foot.“
(John Dryden)
One of the most important missions of our folk dancing group is to learn the various folk dances in order to perform them on different events.

Our dancing lessons always take place on Fridays at 8 p.m. in the gym of the "Hauptschule" in Stainz.
Besides the folk dancing we also cultivate ancient customs such as "Peitschenschnalzen" (cracking whips), "Schuhplatteln" (slapping one's shoes and thighs) and "Fahnenschwingen" (swinging flags).
