Kalispell International Folk Dancers











Hi Everyone,

No snow on the valley floor, and the roads are bare and dry. Kind of odd for January, but I'll take it. ;-)

Nice turnout tonight.

Russ wanted to do Preskačanka. It's a dance presented by Yves Moreau at Stockton Folk Dance Camp, July 23 - August 6, 1972. PDF
The music we have is from Yves Moreau's 1st record, which had many of the dances we still do -Dospatsko Horo, Bicak, Cekurjankino Horo, Sadi Moma, Sandansko Horo; and 20 plus years ago -Kulsko Horo, Dobrudzanska Raka.
Video of Preskačanka. This group has separate lines for men and women, but Yves taught it as M and W mixed, other than that they are doing the dance as Yves Moreau taught it. One note, the dance begins immediately with the right foot crossing the left.
