#39/365 Néptánc


Let's escape the dreary winter and step into spring for today.

Do you remember what you were doing when you're at that young age? Well, I wasn't brave enough to dance and perform in front of huge crowds, that's for sure. The group was performing during the May 1 festivals.

According to Kecekemét Táncegyüttes (Kecekemét Dance Ensemble), their members' age ranges from 6 years til pensioners. They dedicate their free time in preservation of the Hungarian folk tradition.
