Baroque Dance Repertory Workshops

Each session will be self-contained, devoted to a dance or dances reconstructed from baroque dance notation: ballroom dances from the early 18th century that would have been “performed” at elaborate court balls and at private gatherings. No prior Baroque dance experience is required — steps needed for the dances will be taught as part of the workshop.
May 6 Repertory:
La Bouflers, choreography by Claude Balon (1722)
A gavotte with a pleasing variety of step sequences, alternating between mirror and axial symmetry.
