BRUEGEL, Pieter the Elder. Peasants Dance.jpg (158438 bytes)

Here we presented some public dance progams we have presented from January 2004 - December 2008 (we have collected earlier years only in hard copy form). The dances on these programs are very different from those we might lead at a private function (for people not normally into dancing we have lots of simple fun accessible dances which we don't tend to program in advance but which never fail to please).
