102. Kolo Dancing Ensemble Mainly perform dances from Serbia, Bosnia and Macedonia. About their repertoire and history. Contact information. http://folk.uio.no/knutar/kolo/eng/

Kolo was started in 1984, and the ensemble consists of eight male and eight female dancers. Kolo's dances are mainly dances from the regions Serbia, Bosnia and Macedonia. The repertoire is varied: Gypsy dances, suites and even a dance with ritual content, where the women's coin vests provide the rhythm. The Kolo dancers try their best to interpret the multiplicity of folk dancing: Originality, commitment and the delight of dancing. The costumes are colourful and exciting. Over the last few years Kolo has given several performances in Oslo, Bergen and Copenhagen. During the 1980s Kolo appeared on Norwegian television twice, and in 1992 the ensemble participated in a television music show. In 1994 Kolo celebrated its tenth anniversary with a performance at the Cosmopolite in Oslo. phone +47 22 29 24 28 (home) Kolo can also be reached by e-mail: kolo@studorg.uio.no Links!

This is all about folk music and dancing and having lots of fun! We meet up once a week on Monday nights for all sorts of dancing: some traditional English, Irish and Scottish dances (the stuff you dance at ceilidhs or "barn dances" in plain English) as well as all sorts of International folk dances. During the year we will dance around the world! In Fresher's week we usually hold a Ceilidh with a local band playing live music. This is a great way to have a try it out and to start the academic year... We also go to some ceilidhs in and around Exeter, but the absolute highlight is the IVFDF (pronounced "ifffdifff"). The Inter-Varsity Folk Dance Festival is a weekend packed with folk music and dancing, with ceilidhs, workshops, shows,... Each year it is hosted by a different University. Exeter hosted IVFDF '95 and '99 with great success, and we will host it again in 2004! This year we went all the way up to Sheffield and it was definitely worth every single mile! Now we are all getting ready to welcome to the event to Exeter next February! These weekends are great fun and you usually don't get much sleep at all. Check out our photo page for the evidence! If you play an instrument why don't you join in for some folk music? We meet on Monday nights before the dancing and just enjoy playing together. You don't need to be an expert. All levels are welcome! The same applies to the dancing: Beginners are welcome, no experience is necessary and you don't need to bring a partner. And if you know some dances please show us! We are always keen to try out some new stuff. Membership is only £2.50 per term which works out as 25p per week. A real bargain! The dancing then is free. Only if we have "specials" (like live bands or external instructors) we might charge something extra to cover the costs. Non-members pay £1 per session. For details of how to become a member ask any committee member or send us an email. You can join any time. Just come along on Monday night!

A Glossary of Dance Terms by Jim Battisson This glossary was written for International folk dancers in Australia. It includes a reasonable selection of terms used in Australian colonial and bush dancing as well as most of the terms used by local international folk dance teachers. There is no standard set of dance terms and I am not attempting to define (impose) one but rather to record the current Australian usage. Since the meaning of a keyword is sometimes dependent on the type of dance being described I will show the keyword’s context for the meaning in the form: keyword (context): Meaning ... When a keyword is not the first word in a key phrase, the keyword is shown bold followed by the phrase in italics: When a keyword has associated words that are optional, then the optional words are in square brackets. eg, hey, [straight] hey or quadrille [set] All directions of movement in this glossary are relative to the current position of the dancer unless otherwise stated.
