The branle Gay is found in Orchesography by Thoinot Arbeau. It is one of the quatre branles.
Steps Used
- Pied en l'air gauche or Kick Left (KL)
- Pied en l'air droit or Kick Right (KR)
N. B. This is one dance where the pied en l'air is used in a way that does not necessarily imply a forward kick, so it might have used a pied en l'air that does not go forward and is thus not really a kick.
Choreography
As with most branles, this dance is performed in a line of people holding hands or (if enough people are present) a circle. It is not necessary for the dancers to be paired into couples.
This is a fairly easy dance. It requires a little balance and barely any brain power.
