Andree taught two dances to the early group: Irish Line Dance and Hora Pe Gheata (Romania). I, Judith, was unfortunately caught up in the case of the missing dogs.

Click here for a video of Hora Pe Gheata being taught.

Andree also taught Ya da kalinushku lomala (Russia) to the main group. Here is a video of that dance (which isnt one of the early group dances):

Marcel reviewed Steppin Out (USA) and Zagorisios (Greece) and reviewed a dance he taught in July: Srpkinja, from Serbia. Srpkinja means “Serbian girl”.

I couldn’t find a video of the dance, but here is a nice youtube video of the music being played on a mountain dulcimer:

Marcel taught Steppin Out, a novelty dance from the United States, as well as Zagorisios, from Greece. Andrée also reviewed Esmer from Azerbaijan, very briefly.

Zagorisios:

Michèle taught us Ardeleana, from Romania. I couldn’t find a video or description elsewhere, so I guess you had to be there.

Carolle and I (Judith) taught and reviewed Hora de la Soroca and Hora lautareasca din Dolj, both Romanian dances that are taught by Sonja and Christian Florescu. I also reviewed Erev Ba, from Israel.

Here is a video of Hora de la Soroca, danced by a group in Italy. Christian Florescu is dancing in the center with the group:

Here is a video of Erev Ba (which means “Evening falls”):

Here are a couple of videos of Bavno Oro:
