The beginnings of the dance house movement - a new form of public recreation. Dance houses at the book club on Liszt tér in May and June of 1972 were private events open only to members of four Budapest amateur folk dance performing groups. The first dance house that was open to the public was held at ’FMH’ in Budapest in February 1973 with live music by Halmos, Sebő, Éri and other musicians they had begun to recruit and train. Meanwhile during the same period, in 1971 the first group of students began the first four year program at the Hungarian Academy of Dance - training professional folk dancers - led by Timár Sándor and Györgyfalvi Katalin. Students from the Dance Academy’s Folk Dance Department became active and key participants in the dance house scene. With excerpts from interviews with: Sebő Ferenc, Sipos Mihály, Hamár Dániel, Virágvölgyi Márta
