D’Fröhliche Schuhplattler was formed in 1976 for the purpose of upholding the traditions of Bavarian culture through Schuhplattler (dancing), music, and authentic Bavarian clothing (tracht).

 

The club has performed locally as well as across the United States.  We have been featured at many local festivals, including St. Charles Oktoberfest.

 

You don’t have to be German or have dancing experience to be a member.  We teach people of all ages dances that have been handed down from one generation to the next.  We also assist in providing outfits (“tracht”) to people interested in becoming members.

 

We hold practice, usually once or twice a month, at the German Cultural Society Hall, 3652 S. Jefferson Ave.  Non-members are always welcome.  Please contact us to confirm practice times.
