June 7-9, 2019
Welcome to the registration page for the first-ever Hungarian Dance Weekend at Pinewoods Camp in Plymouth, Massachusetts!
Early June is a beautiful time to be at Pinewoods - a little slice of heaven one hour south of Boston nestled between two pristine, tree-shaded ponds. Add to the natural beauty the open air dance pavilions and dining hall, and the cabins in the woods, you have the makings of a wonderful getaway weekend.
But there's more! The weekend will feature Dénes Takácsy, a highly-acclaimed and much-loved teacher of traditional Hungarian/Transylvanian dances. Dénes will focus on teaching Vajdaszentivány Táncok - a couple dance with handkerchiefs from eastern Transylvania. Evening parties will feature the Hungarian folk band Fényes Banda for dancing, teaching circles, and your listening pleasure.
You can find more information about the session, as well as Pinewoods Camp itself, on the Folk Arts Center's Hungarian Dance Weekend webpage. But it is here where you register for the weekend!
Please note: while this program is designed for adults over age 18 with some Hungarian or other couple dance experience, a limited number of campers under the age of 18 can be accepted. Non-dancing companions are welcome to attend; while they will not take classes, they will be able to relax surrounded by the beauty that is Pinewoods, enjoy the great camp food, and participate in all the evening festivities!
To register, click on the "Apply Now!" button at the bottom. It is best (but not required) if each member of your party registers individually under different emails. However, if your family members do not have separate emails, register one as the main person, and the others as "Additional Campers".
