Crafted over the course of centuries, Bulgarian folk dances are world-renowned for their beauty and complex choreography. Bulgarian folk dance and music became more accessible to North Texas, when the first weekly dance class wes opened in Richardson in February 2008, and a second one in Colleyville in July 2008.
The Bulgarian folk dance classes continue to attract people of all ages, not only with the enchanting Bulgarian music, but also as a fun and refreshing form of exercise.
As the dance classes gained momentum, the dancers’ enthusiasm fueled the creation of the Bulgarian Folk Dance Ensemble “Lyush”. Highly regarded, Lyush has been developing and performing regularly for its diverse Dallas audience since the fall of 2008.
