Some of our friends from visiting Vereine are already on their way to the DSB to participate in our yearly Einzel Workshop! Today is a day of gemütlichkeit and practice - dancers will get critique from dance leaders from other groups. We look forward to hosting you all again this year, especially on the DSB’s newly refurbished dance floor!

It’s also the perfect time to throw it back to last month’s Mid-Atlantic Jugend Einzel Competition (hosted by UGH on March 14th). We had 7 competitors participate that day! Special thank you to Jayden for being a stand-in dancer, Allyssa and Jayden for being the warm up couple for the day, our 🪗 AMAZING accordionist Steve 🪗 for not only playing for our couples but also couples from other Vereine, and Morgan and Jayden for sitting on the circle to judge and critique all 34 couples that day!

We are so proud of all of the EVTG Jugend who participated last month!! Below are the results, and you might even see some of them on the floor today at the workshop!
