THE POWER OF FOLK DANCE
The heart of community
In the group, now with over 60 members, we welcome dance lovers every week with a colourful repertoire and all those who want to belong to a joyful, close-knit community.
HUNIQUE DANCE ENSEMBLE
Founded 15 years ago in London, the dance ensemble has grown into one of the largest and most respected folk-dance groups in the Hungarian diaspora.
"We will remain Hungarian as long as we sing in Hungarian and dance in Hungarian."

PERFORMANCES
The more active members of the dance group regularly accept invitations, whether it’s a performance at a Hungarian school in England, a corporate event, or a cultural occasion.
With a rich repertoire, they embrace the diverse world of Hungarian folk-dance, from the characteristic dances of various regions to lesser-known couple and group dances.
CarFest, GÓBÉFEST
In 2017, the group received a special honour: they were invited to the United Kingdom’s largest charity festival, CarFest and GobéFest.
Additionally, they represented Hungary and Hungarian culture at numerous international festivals, contributing to the global recognition of our traditions.
FOLK DANCE CAMP
In the four-day residential camp, participants can learn various dances from renowned professional instructors and forge new friendships with dance enthusiasts coming from different parts of England.
The Hungarian Folk-Dance Camp in England was created based on the vision of Boldizsár Acsai, modelled on Transylvanian dance camps, aiming to deepen traditions and build community.
The unique Hungarian dance house method originating from Transylvania was included in the Hungarikum Collection on January 31, 2013. This cultural treasure is listed among the best practices for safeguarding intangible cultural heritage, maintained by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO).
