DANCES TAUGHT AT MENDOCINO ENGLISH WEEK
2003
This slightly belated list shows what dances were taught at last year's English Dance Week.
The format is instructor or event, then dance name, and finally companion notes on author, dance booklet, and accompanying tune, as available. The order and content of the notes varies by instructor. Each instructor's offerings are listed by class, then date. After the class lists we offer the roster of dances from the evening dance parties. We hope this list may prove useful to some; please check the list of dances for 2004 as well, which will be posted shortly after camp.
