Bossa Nova demonstration
zhlédnutí 214Před 28 dny
Danced by Richard Powers and Mirage Marrou Greene. Bossa Nova began as a music style from Rio de Janeiro, not as dance form. Then dancers figured out what to dance to this new easygoing music. Different dancers came up with different choices, so there is not one definitive style, but most based their Bossa Nova dancing on the Rumba, probably because the tempo and the mood of Bossa Nova music ar...

This is an exact reconstruction of three of the figures, as described in The Dancer's Assistant, London, circa 1870. Discovered and reconstructe...

    Kathy and I had the honor of studying dance with Richard Powers in the 80’s and 90’s. He came to Connecticut 2-3 times a year to conduct intensive dance weekends. We, in groups and as a couple, danced both socially and professionally. We are now retired from dancing, but have cherished memories. Thank you Richard for a lifetime of dancing memories!!!
