Swedish Polska- all levels

Lucy and Ella are back for another day workshop focused on the polska, a much beloved and sometimes mysticised couple dance from Sweden (we're here to demystify, don't worry). Taught by Lucy Huzzard and Ella Sprung of the Third Beat Dance Collective, both graduates from the Eric Sahlström Institute folk dance course in Sweden, who have been teaching dance classes together since 2016.

Whether you're new to the polska and are curious about the thriving folk dance scene in Sheffield and beyond, or you're looking to polish your turns, learn some extra tips and tricks and solidify your knowledge of this beautiful dance- this workshop is for you!

What to expect:

• Grounding in the body, balance, working with groove and walking to music.
  
• Working in hold with multiple people/changing dance partners throughout the day
• A gender neutral dance form with no real 'lead' or 'follow' roles- hoorah!
• Teas, coffees and 'fika' (cake break)

What to bring:

• No partner necessary
• Please bring slidey/non grippy shoes as it will help!
• Comfy clothes
• Something to eat, as the workshop will break for lunchtime
