Welcome!We are a recreational group dedicated to enjoying and teaching traditional Scandinavian dance. We dance and teach couple dances and lively mixers from all five Nordic countries. Each Monday typically brings out 30 or more dancers of all abilities. We dance at Nordia House, 8800 SW Oleson Rd, Portland. Click here for map.
News: We started to dance in person again on March 14 2022, for folks with proof of vaccination and booster only at this time. Check out our covid protocols page for requirements to attend. We are very much looking forward to getting together again, to learn and remember dances! Folks are also welcome to come to visit, listen, and watch, and to dance when they feel comfortable.

A number of superb live dance workshops are back this summer, and they’re now open for registration. You’ll find them listed here. Then, as we prepare for the new teaching sessions you will be promptly informed. 
Thank You Musicians and DJs!A big thanks to those who play tunes for us every Monday! We’re looking for people who want to fill the vital role of DJ for our dance evenings. Training will be provided if you’re new to this role. Please email us at info@norkserunddansere.org if you’re interested…and our heartfelt gratitude in advance!
Donations Welcome (click here)Why? Our membership fees are just almost enough to meet our expenses. Our rent went up very significantly a couple of years ago, and we will still have a donation jar on the entry table. If your budget allows, would you please consider adding a little extra to your membership dues? If you can help, we thank you so very much!
We also have our own teaching DVDs for sale (set of two for $10) and our sturdy shoe bags for $10 each if you want to contribute that way! (click here) Everyone is Welcome!Norske Runddansere does not discriminate. Anyone is welcome to join us- all you need is a willingness to give it a try.

What's Happening This Week 12.5.2022Hello dance friends,
Following our terrifically successful completion of Snoball in the Gorge we’ll now move on to learning and renewing more dances to enjoy. This week Juanita has stepped up to give us another look at Odina Jonsson Bakmes, one of our favorites. This gentle and good dance is distinctly different from the polskor and mazurkas we have reviewed recently. Come and see what it’s about. Be ready at 7:15 pm so you won’t miss a minute. We can look forward to Kim Majors and friends playing again for our enjoyment. Vaccinations including booster and masks are still required to dance. And don’t miss the announcement here about ScanFair, and the special dance with visiting musicians Saturday evening. Hope to see you there! You know we begin at 7:15 pm and would like to see you there. We’ll leave the lights on for you. Vaccinations including booster and masks are still required to dance. Haven't renewed your membership yet? You can do that in person at the dance, or online here.
