Goal of the Activity

The goal of our Horoteka (traditional Bulgarian dance workshop) is to showcase Bulgarian culture and acquaint our Erasmus students with the Bulgarian traditions.

Description

We started our event with a short presentation, explaining the traditions behind Horo (Bulgarian dances), History, and why we celebrate our National Holiday on March 3rd. We then moved onto the workshop – we showed and taught our Erasmus students how to dance three different styles of horo (Право хоро, Бяла Роза, Дунавско хоро).
