Ana Yepes teaches Spanish baroque dance according to the following sources:

Courante und Sarabande ‒ beide Tanzformen des 17. Jhs werden im Hochbarock als getragen, gravitätisch, majestätisch charakterisiert und sind doch gänzlich verschieden. Die Courante glänzte als Gesellschaftstanz im Zeitalter des Sonnenkönigs, spielte die Hauptrolle im Hofball. Die Sarabande strahlte als Bühnentanz in zeitgenössischen Opern, hatte aber im 17. Jh. auch ihren Platz im Ballsaal. Eine spannende Annäherung an die beiden Danses de société wird Thema des nächsten Bad Rappenauer Kurses zur Tanzpraxis im 17. Jahrhundert sein.

Bi weekly court dance lessons, on saturdays or sundays (or both) given by Erwin Mulder at sporthal hogeveld in The Hague.
