Saturday 2 July 2011 - England and Bulgaria unite through dance

Morris Dancers from the South of England visited Momchilovtsi to demonstrate their traditional dancing. The villagers also gave a demonstration their local dance encouraging the Morris Dancers to join in and in turn were taught a traditional Morris dance. At the end of the day the Morris Dancers presented "traditional hickory Morris dancing sticks" and music to the people of Momchilovtsi.

The history of Morris Dancing is that every May Day, outside the village pubs in England, strangely clad people can be seen leaping into the air, waving handkerchiefs and sticks, with bells jingling from their clothing. This traditional ritual to welcome the return of spring is called morris dancing, and it goes back at least to the 15th century.
