Renaissance Dancing?

[The Rogue Gambit]

Just wondering where one can get some renaissance dance stlye lessons at or around Houston,TX?

That's not a bad idea at all. Speaking of Houston, I just moved here from more up north to Spring, North Houston, what have you, 77069 area code...anyone of RF live near that area? Dont mean to lead the thread off topic, just curious.

I have seen them online - just google it

springs a good area of town, i live in katy myself. The only thing i was able to find that was renaissance style was belly dancing, which is a good dance just not for me, i dont think people want to see me in a bikini shakeing my beer belly, lol. but thanks for the help.

There might be a group in that area, but I don't recall hearing of one.  Ask a cast member from TRF, if you know any (there are some on this group).  In Dallas we call it "Historical Dance" or "English Country dance".  We also had an Italian Court dance/16thC group a few years back.  Expand your keyword search, you may find some people from other faires in your area that would get together and teach basic dances.

Good luck,

I'm in Cypress (near Willowbrook)-- which is the NW side of Houston.  Don't know of any classes out here, but I'm still getting used to the area myself.

The stuff I've seen is mostly Scottish or Irish dance classes.   I was the choreographer at TRF for many years, but I don't know enough dances to actually hold classes for any length of time.
