Kalispell International Folk Dancers











Hi Everyone,

The first five dances were done just to know if I could emember them. Thanks to Don for helping to remember Pidhichtos Banas. Pajduško is one I saw at the UCLA Friday night folk dance about 1980 or 81. I added Yahoo becasue you hear them sing Yahoo in the song. We'll work on Šopsko Horo too.

Russ taught The Merry Reapers & and laid the ground work for Postie's Jig

I taught/demonstrated Alunelul de la Urzica and a the closing step for Tou paradeisou lemonia.

Sam led us in the Chicken Dance. Here is a PDF explaining the origins of the Chicken dance writen by Dick Oaks
