Czech folk dancing

The Catholic in Japan had a post about Italian folk dancing, and I thought it was great timing, since I've been looking at some videos of traditional Czech dancing recently. I've got a Czech-themed event coming up, and I had to do my homework!

I agree with the CIJ in that the world would probably be a better place if people spent more time doing this kind of thing than sitting around watching the tube. That said, it's hard to teach oneself to dance or to do it alone. Shall I plot a dance event next?? But I think people would claim embarrassment at having to do such an unseemly, intimate thing, so pretty much everything but Western line dance is out, and I have awful memories of doing that in gradeschool gym class. Still...

I just had to try that. Lucky for me, Miss Moppet was standing near by. It's really not as easy as it looks -- quite invigorating, though!

I would think that this would catch Grandma's attention, if she is reading your blog!
