Regency & Renaissance Dance Workshops, NYC (June 1, 2008)

Written by

I will be teaching two dance workshops for The Elegant Arts Society in New York City this Sunday, June 1st.  Logistical details are here.

The first (1:00-3:45pm) will focus on the dances of the Regency era (1810-1820), including steps and figures for country dances and the Royal Scotch and Caledonian Quadrilles, plus the Regency-era waltz.  The Royal Scotch Quadrilles feature the "star" figure described in an earlier article here.

The second class (4:00-6:00pm) will focus on the lively, stamping, Spanish-influenced canario, using the canario section of Caroso’s 1581 dance Cesia Orsina as an example of joint and solo variations and improvisation.
