Balkan folk dances are danced in a chain or circle, with dancers linked by a hand or shoulder hold. There is a repeated sequence of steps, some very simple, others more intricate. These rhythmic patterns date back to pre-Roman times, but have been modified and developed as a result of the movement of peoples and cultures, which cross political boundaries. Learn about the context and culture behind the dances. All dances taught step by step by a qualified dance tutor.  You do not need a partner.
