During this session, Carol Sersland focuses on a schottis variation called “Ringlender” from the Røros area of Norway. The class starts off with the basics to build confidence and comfort with the movements. Upon that foundation, the swinging motions will be added, and “the real fun of the dance begins.” The workshop features music by master Hardanger fiddler Rachel Ulvin Jensen.
Carol learned the joy of Norwegian folk dance in tradition from her immigrant father. At last year’s Landskappleik (Norway’s annual national music and dance competition), Carol participated to honor her father’s legacy. Dancing Telespringar with her Norwegian cousin’s grandson, her performance was recognized with a second-place award. As an instructor, Carol strives “to bring that same joy to dancers,” both experienced and novice.
This workshop is part of the the second annual Duluth-stämman: Nordic Music and Dance Festival, which offers dances, workshops, jam circles, performances and youth activities that aim to be inclusive to people of all ages, backgrounds and abilities.
