Since Katherina Weyssin is away - I have been asked to teach dance for the next two weeks.
Attended dance - Anna de Wilde and Catrine de Vantier
Unfortunately for one reason or another (mostly due to winter colds) several kind gentles contacted me before dance to advise that they were unable to attend.
So it was a good chance for Catrine and I to go over some of the dances we have learnt in the advanced class.
We did several run throughs of Ginevra, a bassedanse reconstructed by Katherina.

Another lovely evening, and lots of dances. We didn't separate the evening so clearly into two sections as we sometimes do, because we started a bit late and everyone was having fun.
Present: Katherina Weyssin, Caterina Nuova, Christine Bess Duvaunt, William de Cameron, William de Wyke, Anna de Wilde.
We started with several simpler dances:

We revised simpler material in the first hour, then did a group reconstruction of Sobria in the second.

A good evening - mostly revision of dances we've done before, but don't all know well.

It seems we were in the mood for 15th century Italian dances. Katherina was a little under the weather, so William de Cameron took on much of the evening's teaching, ably assisted by Anna. Thanks!
