Repertoire
In our repertoire we try to renew and develop sources of traditional folk art of Moravian Slovakia with its unique and rich culture. However, we do not remain only in our native region: we dare to go for folk songs beyond the border of Slovakia.
Among the most popular dances of our repertoire are čardáš, šariš, zbojné, myjava, but local dances also including staroměstské, bílovské and boršické.
Bc. Petr Číhal works out the music arrangements. PaeDr. Lenka Kraváčková, Mgr. Gabriela Směřičková, Mgr.Art. Yvona Čižmárová, Helena Pilušová, Mgr. Jiří Martykán, Ivo Mikuš, Mgr. David Pavlíček and Martin Rezek participate in dancing choreographies.
