Series called Táncház 50 – articles, stories and memories from earlier years of the dance house movement. Folk dancer, dance teacher, researcher Redő Júlia remembers she went (in the mid 1990s) to the Roma community of Őrkő in Transylvania (a district of the city of Sepsiszentgyörgy/Sfântu Gheorghe, Romania) to collect and learn the Gypsy dance there. Finally she writes about going to Gyimes (also in Transylvania) in 1990 and watching the people there dance. As a dancer her recollections and descriptions are centered around the finer points of the dancing she observes and how that nourishes her own dancing when she performs, teaches or just dances.
