(Hungarian Dance House) on February 20 and also its first Dance Day
celebration on April 29, as perscribed by the Council on Dance (CID),
UNESCO. Our Tancház consisted of performances of Hungarian dance by the Csásdás Youth Ensemble, who then taught the audience some simple Hungarian dances. All had a wonderful time of celebrating the art of dance! For Dance Day, the Movement Arts Center hosted 8 dance groups that day for a standing-room only crowd. The groups that participated were Illstyle Rockers (hip hop), Ohio Conservatory of Dance (ballet), Columbus Tap Project (tap), Susana Evert (Latin), Jessica Koeberling (belly dancing), Csardas Youth Ensemble (Hungarian), plus performances by students of the Movement Arts Center and Executive Director Richard Graber and visiting Hungarian dancer, Liz Krajcz from the Csipke Ensemble in Detroit (shown in photo). The Movement Arts Center would like to thank each performing artist that gave of their time for both dance celebrations. Csardas Youth Ensemble Performances Encourage Young and Old  Csardas Youth Ensemble performed to many appreciative
and supportive audiences this spring. Included were McKinley Elementary
School in Cleveland and Oxford and Boulevard Elementary Schools in
Cleveland Heights, which included teaching sessions by Richard Graber. At
Medina Western Reserve Masonic Community, our youth ensemble and Richard
Graber performed for delighted residents there. Our youth ensemble also
had a special opportunity to perform at Bethel Lutheran Church in
Middleburg Heights for a group of mentally challenged adults who enjoyed
the performance so much that they even learned a Hungarian dance! Csardas
