Regency

with a series of day workshops from the Renaissance to the Roaring 20's

OXFORD HISTORICAL DANCE SOCIETY

Renaissance to the Roaring 20's

This society was founded in 1981 and organises day courses led by experienced and qualified tutors. Background information in music, costume and history are provided as well as technique and dances.

Anyone interested in history, early music, ballet, amateur dramatics etc will find these workshops stimulating and fun.

Nachdem die Revolution verstummte und Napoleon Frankreich und Europa "einte", erfüllten rauschende Feste Säle und Salons, und bei beschwingten Tänzen und vergnüglichen Spielen vertrieb man sich die Zeit. Zu kurz war die Zeit zwischen den Kriegen und Kämpfen, umso fröhlicher der "Tanz auf dem Vulkan". Lieven Baert, Gent, wird uns vom 1. - 4. Juni in die aufregenden Tänze und Formationen der Epoche einführen und mit einem bezaubernden, kleinen Fest, zu dem jeder herzlich willkommen ist, werden wir dieses Gefühl wieder aufleben lassen.

An evening full of dance, music and entertainment at a magnificent location!

Following on from the hugely successful 2008 Costume Ball which was held at St. George’s Hall Liverpool; MADFolk are hosting a Costume Ball at Wallasey Town Hall on April 9th 2011. The Dancing Master will be Mr. Reg Battle with The Pemberley Players.

The Hall is situated on Brighton Street, Wallasey, Wirral, CH44 8ED.

The Georgian Ball is hosted annually by Bath Minuet Company and has become a highlight of the early dance calendar.

The Guildhall in Bath continues to provide the perfect setting for this event which draws enthusiasts and practitioners of historic dance from across the UK.

A dance workshop is held on the afternoon preceding the ball for the benefit of persons wishing to attend and to assist those with perhaps less dance experience.
