Circle Dance is a form of international folk dancing which aims to create 'the community' as well as celebrate the traditions of central and eastern Europe through its seasonal rituals in music and dance.
Sometimes called Sacred Dance, it takes the rhythm of life and belief, and weaves it into a body prayer.
Sometimes slow and meditative, with gypsy rhythms, lines and spirals, or fast, often very fast! we dance for the joys and hardships, we support personal and community transformation, with ancient and new music and steps, interpreting ideas with movement.
I theme dance evenings on the seasonal celebrations using traditional dance forms, from the Balkans, Russia, Armenia and France.

All information will be posted here,
