ANST - Kingdom A&S

[Ghislaine Fontaneau/Elayne Hoover]

If I'd had money to get there and pay site fee, then I would have gladly
danced with your troupe!  I love court dance, it is one of my favorite
SCA activities.  Unfortunately, I have not been able to dance sine
Squires' and Cadets' Invitational last spring.  Not enough willing
dancers in my shire, no music, not anyone to instruct.....

Though I once could have taught dance, it has been almost four years
since I had practice often enough to *remember* any steps.  Now, I just
have a vague happy memory of how much fun dancing used to be.  I've
thought about breaking down and buying one of the dance manuals and a
set of tapes, but why bother...who would I teach the dances to?

I've just about given up on courtly dance in the Western Region.  I
would love it if someone were to surprise me....
