This congress is strictly non-profit: none of the organizers receives a fee. Not to be confused with dance workshops, festivals, symposiums or open conferences. It is the largest gathering of dance specialists ever; with the strictest specifications and the richest program.
Traditional three-measure dances from Armenia, the Balkans and the Rom (Gypsy) community are among the most ancient dances. Their patterns and symbols connect us with the living energy of the Goddess and the Tree of Life.
