IFC's SPECIAL TEACHERS FOR OUR NEXT CAMP
Two of the best teachers you'll see anywhere
We are excited to present the following teachers at IFC:
Daniel Sandu
Daniel, born in Bucharest, fell in love with dance when he was 4 years old! At 6, he joined a children's dance group that met in the presidential palace, turning professional at 18. Now living in the Netherlands, as a member of staff of Amsterdam's most famous folk dance house his course on Rhythm and dance is its most popular offering. (He's even an expert on tap dancing!)
Because Daniel's dances are exciting, interesting, with great music, his creations have been widely taught by Roberto Bagnoli, Steve Kotansky, Ira Weisburd and Lee Otterholt on their tours. The newly popular Auauauau, Hora Nouras (jointly developed with Kotansky), Pitpalaca, Muiere Muiere, Norocu, Magic Mamaliga, Romanian Club Life, Ceasornicul, Hora Et Labora, and many more dances are popular in Europe and our own West coast. You'll enjoy learning and dancing with Daniel.
Roberto Bagnoli
Roberto is one of the most popular teachers at camps across the US, Canada and Europe. His engaging style, ready smile, encouraging manner – in addition to his fabulous choice of dances and extensive mastery of new and old repertoire – is perfect for beginner and advanced dancer alike. He leads two popular camps in Italy - International and another exclusively Israeli.
Dances introduced in America by Roberto would fill 3 pages, as he
selects the best dances from the best teachers. His own dances include
Kirmizi Biber, Passu Torrau, Corlu, Passu Torrau, Valle Shqiptare,
Gras Kalo Kolo, Branle de la Fosse, Sbrando, Bum Bum Boje ... Join us
as we dance with wonderful Roberto Bagnoli.

IFC's founder, Moshe Eskayo

Our band: The Boston Trio
Come hear folkdance music played live, and played well! The Boston Trio - Tom Pixton, Ralph Iverson, and Brian Wilson - have received accolades for their enthusiasm, musicianship, and harmony with careful attention to the needs of the folkdance community. They have played at several camps across the country - often being called back year after year. You will enjoy the Saturday evening live music like you've never before.
