I will be teaching two dance workshops for The Elegant Arts Society in New York City this Sunday, March 2nd. Logistical details are here.
The first (1:00-3:45pm) will focus on the dances of the Regency era (1810-1820), including both steps and figures for country dances and the Caledonian Quadrilles plus a look at the lively sauteuse waltz.
The second class (4:00-6:00pm) will cover the basic ballroom dances of the 1880s in preparation for an upcoming EAS event, the Victorian Bustle Ball on March 29th, which I will be precepting. Included will be the waltz, polka, and schottische, plus the Polo Quadrille and the "star" figure described in an earlier article here, in the form of a polka cotillion figure (German).
