I INVITE you in October to WARSAW
for WEEKLY retro DANCE workshops! 🙂
Polish retro dances from the first half of the 20th century are once again enchanting the young and bringing nostalgia to the older generations.
During our weekly workshops, we will learn to dance SENTIMENTAL TANGOS, WALTZES, SLOW FOXY, and FOXTROTS.
We will dance to old melodies from backyards and city alleys, radio and cinema hits from crackling gramophone records, as well as 'old-style' melodies currently recorded by contemporary bands practicing pre-war styles, including the Warsaw Dance Combo, Warsaw Sentimental Orchestra, Kapela NICPONIE, and the Little Dancing Orchestra.
These dances were once performed at city dances and parties commonly referred to as DECHY. When it got cooler, dance events were moved to pubs, cafes, and restaurants.
Since there were few dance schools and not everyone could afford them, people learned and danced 'as their soul dictated,' the style was often free, and the steps in the dance were very simple.
🔳 During our workshops, you will master the steps and rules applicable in non-theatrical forms of traditional dance performed at social dances, so that dancing brings you as much pleasure and joy as possible.
🔳 Our workshops can also be treated as a dance practice or fitness classes, during which we will meet new people and spend time in a pleasant atmosphere, while also shedding unnecessary calories to traditional Polish music.
🔳 During the workshops, there will be rhythmic exercises that will help you develop a sense of rhythm, motor coordination, strengthen your physical fitness, and give your dance movements strength, fluidity, and lightness.
🔳 It will also be a large portion of inspiration, good fun, and a pleasant way to spend free time with fantastic people who come to our workshops.
🔳 It will also be an opportunity to meet interesting people, which will help you quickly find a dance partner for any occasion when traditional music is played.
