i literally just deactivated my FB today or else i would like this in a second! sososo admirable and cool that you dance, i did for a few years way back when…i really, really wish i still continued. amazing!!
Haha, no worries! Thank you for you admiration! <3
Your interest in our traditional dance makes me soooo happy though. It seems harder to get more kids to join our group each year. CDTO has been around since the mid 90s, and there used to be a lot of dancers and volunteers. Now we can barely find guys for our folk dances. I think a lot of it has to do with the parents not encouraging their kids, or some inside drama that's turned people off from joining. I don't really know, but I'm hoping to turn it around by next year and building a stronger and bigger group of kids and adults that are passionate about their culture and our community.
