DANCE2008BOHEMIA
INTERNATIONAL FOLKLORE DANCE FESTIVAL



Dance2008Bohemia festival - which was already the fourth in the line - took place in Prague and Bohemian   spa town of Podebrady 21st - 24th August. Great thanks to all the participating ensembles for joining the festival and making it success. The crowds on both - Old Town Square in Prague and on Podebrady collonade enjoyed the performances enormously and judging from the first comments - the dancers too had fun and enjoyed the great atmosphere of the festival.

We encourage all the participants to contact organisers with opinions and comments of whatever nature. We promise to consider them all and we seek your permission to publish these on our website

I am writing to thank you and the organizers of the Festival one more time. We had a wonderful time and the experience will be unforgettable.Your city is marvellous and dancing in the main square of Prague felt like dancing in a fairytale land with all those wonderful buildings around.The people of Prague and Podebrady were friendly and hospitable, our guide was polite, patient and very obliging and the gala dinner just unforgettable especially for our group and the group from Canada since you gave us the chance to dance the dances of our country. Thank you so much again for giving us the opportunity to experience something like this! I hope to see you again in a future festival Best wishes from a very hot Athens(37 degrees!!)

Ms. Marianne Nystr�m, Let�lvsgillet, Degerfors, Sweden

Greetings from all the members in Let�lvsgillet, Sweden. We send you lots of thanks for a fantastic festival. Everybody are so happy to have had the opportunity to take part in it. A special thank you to our guide, Marcel, who guided us through the festival and also through Prague. In the bus during our long journey back to Degerfors, we talked a lot about the festival and we all had a lot of good memories in our hearts.

Siwan Halldegard, Slattergillet, Stockholm, Sweden

It was really a pleasure to take part in this lovely festival in the beautiful city of Prague. We all had a great time. Everyone of us thought that Prodebrady was a charming little town with its wonderful park sparkling with flowers. We think that the festival was very well organized, your timetable worked all the time, we are impressed (we have travelled before and know how hard that is). Our guide Petra was also very sweet and helpful; please send our regards to her. We really enjoyed to perform and of course to look at all the other participants. So once again thank you, we might come back you never know. On behalf of the folkdance group Slattergillet Stockholm Sweden

Marta Sagajllo, Zywiec Polish Folk Song and Dance Group, London, UK

On behalf of the Zywiec Polish Folk Song and Dance Group I would like to say, 'What an awesome weekend'!! The organisation, the atmosphere, and even the weather combined to make participation in your Festival an event not to be forgotten! To be among so many other people from all corners of the world with the same love of folk culture as ourselves was a real pleasure! Please convey our thanks to all the organisors; and also to Eva our guide, who very patiently and conscientiously saw us through the whole weekend. Many, many thanks to all!

Ms. Reet Sauer, MoisaProuad, Hiiuaama, Estonia

We are back at home now and last night we gathered to watch photos and remember the festival. We were really happy being in Prague and taking part in the festival. Everything was perfect: concerts, parades, organisation, accommodation, our guide Renate. And you even organized wonderful weather! Thank you very much! We love Prague and the dance festival Bohemia 2008! We hope we'll meet again in the future. Best wishes, Reet and all members of our group.

Ms. Bobbie Evans, Dawnswyr Tipyn o Bopeth, Carmarthen, Wales

I just want to thank you all once again for the fantastic festival that you organised for us. All our members thoroughly enjoyed themselves. One person had never been abroad before due to work comitments, so it was a wonderful experience for him, not only to pursue his enjoyment of dancing, but to do so in the spectacular city of Prague. Your festival gives us the opportunity to make friends from other parts of the world and enjoy the music, dance and costumes of their countries. I hope that we may join your festival in future years.

Mr. Mattias Zetterberg, V�sby Folkdanslag, V�sby Upplands, Sweden

I want to thank you once again for a fantastic festival and I hope that we can come back next year to your festival. We all had a fantastic weekend in Prague and in Podebrady. It was a pleasure to meet other groups from other countries and enjoy their performances.Sent my best greetings and gratefulness to the other members of the organization.
