My mom is going to be teaching this International Folk Dancing Class. She is a great teacher, and the dances are athletic and fun to learn. You can expect to learn a bit about the culture surrounding each dance as well!
WORLD DANCE/WORLD MUSIC
Enjoy the fun, exercise, and challenge of learning traditional dances from diverse world cultures.
Learn dances from Greece, Croatia, Armenia, Israel, Bolivia and more!
Experience unique rhythms, engaging music, and a wide variety of
dance styles, and formations. Dances range from energetic to calming;
contemporary to ancient.
Each week you'll learn new dances, step-by-step, and review dances already learned. These traditional dances are for both men and women, are multi-generational (ages 14 and up), and do not require a partner or prior dance experience. Dress comfortably (you will sweat) and bring non-street shoes to change into. WHERE: Avant Dance Event Center, 865 Spring St, Westbrook, ME
