About
London's own Hunique Dance, born in 2008, is all about bringing the heart and soul of Hungarian folk dance to the UK. These vibrant dancers, under the management of Boldizsar Acsai, are a staple of the Hungarian Culture and Heritage Society.
Every week, in three buzzing rehearsals, they cater to every dancer’s journey. Mondays are for the newbies, Tuesdays for the intermediate dancers getting into the groove, and Thursdays amp up for the big leagues—advanced dancers. They're not just dancing; they’re mastering moves from all corners of Hungary.
Leading the charge are Anita Duds, Gellert Szabo, and Vilmos Hathazi, seasoned pros who know their stuff. And it's not just about practice. Once a month, they spice things up with Social Folk Dance nights, complete with live music. Everyone's invited—no experience necessary.
For the little ones, Hunique Dance throws special kids' events, planting those folk dance roots early. Big fans of cultural mash-ups, they join forces with other dance groups across the UK and host camp-style get-togethers to build camaraderie.
Hunique Dance isn’t just about footwork. Their partnership with Folktone Band ensures that every workshop and event has top-notch live Hungarian music. Whether it's at festivals, schools, or the Hungarian Cultural Day, they're showcasing the vibrant traditions and diverse customs of the Carpathian Basin.
By weaving Hungarian heritage into their routines and inviting everyone in, Hunique Dance has become a cherished part of London's dance scene. It’s not just about preserving tradition; it’s about building a lively, inclusive community where everyone can dance to a Hungarian beat.
