Country Dances entstanden im 16. Jahrhundert in England und haben sich seither ständig fortentwickelt. Sie sind seit ihrer Entstehung fast ununterbrochen getanzt worden und sind heute Teil des englischen Volkstanzes. Im Country Dance Club wollen wir mit einem Schwerpunkt auf historische Country Dances diese Tradition fortführen. Im Vordergrund steht die Geselligkeit und der Spaß an der Bewegung.
