The NMU International Dancers is both a social and a performance group. However, no one is required to perform. This group is open to dancers of all ages. Young children should be accompanied by an adult.
The NMU International Dancers is a group of NMU students, alumni, faculty and Marquette area residents who enjoy learning about different cultures through music and dance.
Several of the student members are new to the troupe and had never seen an dance before two weeks ago. Adding our experience together, we have about 125 years experience doing different types
of folk, ballroom, swing and other dnaces.
The NMU International Dancers meet weekly in Marquette, on Tuesdays from 7:30 PM at Dance Zone.
Normally, dancing is free. We ask for a minimal donation to pay the rent at Presque Isle Park.
