Explore folk chain dances that Balkan countries share. No partner is required. Some previous rhytmic experience in life is necessary.
About this Event

Please note: Some rhythmic experience (even if it was early in life , no need to be official or academic) is necessary. If you don't have any but you are willing to commit - get in touch and I will tell you about options.

Ideally I am looking for people who will committ to more than just once a week practice. If you prefer only once a week - your day of practice will be Friday only! The membership amount is the same for all.

Keep active and enjoy rich traditional music from the Balkans. Balkan folk dances are chain dances with repetitive steps - no partner is required. This is not Bregovich music! :)

What to expect in the class (duration 1h, incl. 5 min break) :

  • Basic exercises and music for warm up.
  • Break down and practise some basic steps / combinations.
  • Learn a few dances - some are with very easy combinations, others might be a bit more complicated. You can participate as you wish.
  • Improve on dances from previous evenings.

Social dance part (duration 30 min).:

  • We can practise some of the dances without detailed explanations.
  • Sometimes you will have the opportunity to listen to / dance on live music (bagpipe and two-sided drum).
  • Socialise or learn more advanced dances.

Other related music/social activities.

What to wear:

Please bring a clean pair of soft shoes that you will use only in the studio (trainers are ok, or others that are not with a hard sole. They don't have to be special dance shoes). I reserve the right to refuse participation if you don't have it. Dancing barefoot or with socks is not suitable.

The studio is in Santry, just beside Omni shopping centre, near bus stops and with free parking. For future payments in cash / Revolut, please contact me by email.

If you can't participate in these classes, please consider supporting the organisation of future dance events by donating - option is available in buying tickets section. Every donation helps. Thank you!
