We once again return to look at some of the earliest written records of historic dance and see how they danced in Medieval Europe!
Within this workshop we'll cover some of the popular styles of social dancing from the period such as the carole (circle or line dances) and branle. We'll then head over to the courts of Europe to learn an Italian stlye ballo before returning to the earliest known text of English dances- The Gresley Manuscript.
The workshop will cover a selection of dances and is suitable for beginners as well as those more experienced. You do not need to have attended a previous workshop. No need to bring a partner just suitable comfy shoes for dancing.
Tea, coffee and cake will be provided. The workshop will be held at St Olaves Church Hall in York. Tickets are £10 and should be purchased in advance.
Join us for an afternoon of Medieval Dance.
