With so many Regency larps going on at the moment, this introductory session will teach participants the basic steps, formations and etiquette of country dances. The first part is for beginners, but experienced dancers are welcome to come along and help out. We’re going to also talk about dancing at larps and how to larp while dancing, as well as some design tips to bear in mind when selecting the dances for a larp. In the second part we will focus on dancing the dances we have learnt; it will also be open to more dancers who are already familiar with them. Come as you are or dress in your Regency best and join us for a straightforward and inclusive experience in a no-pressure setting.
We will be dancing Hole in the Wall, Lord Byron's Maggot, Duke of Kent’s Waltz and Indian Queen.
