The whole of our second workshop will focus on the Swedish polska. Open to both beginners and seasoned polska dancers alike, this workshop will offer something to all dancers. We will work together as a group to deconstruct the polska and look at the elements that make up the dance, looking at both the leading and following roles, posture, hold, balance, and relationship to the music. Everyone involved in the course will be dancing with all other participants and also learning both roles in the dance (no partner required). You will need shoes appropriate for Swedish dance (preferably leather or other smooth soled shoes). (P)
