The folk dance
group "Balkan" is established in 1954 but the last 25 years
are the most beneficial for us. Since 1970 nevertheless the managerial
and personal changes in the group a repertoire of dances is accumulated
contributing to the face of the group.
The members of the dance group "Balkan" are people with different
backgrounds - schoolboys and girls, students, workers. It's amateur
group, but the management body always is racing the serious issues in
terms of technical and artistic performance.
In 1974, the group "Balkan" became a laureate and a golden
prizewinner at the IV Republican festival of amateur dance groups. At
the next V, VI and VII festivals the group retained this prize and was
always among the golden winners. We have just won the first price in
the Sofia festival of youth arts 2000.
