Burgundian Branle

The branle Burgundian is found in Orchesography by Thoinot Arbeau. It is one of the quatre branles.

Steps Used

• Burgundian Double Left (DLbu)
• Burgundian Double Right (DRbu)

These steps are like a double left and a double right except that instead ending up with feet together, one foot is put in the air.

Choreography

As with all 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 partners.

This is the third easiest dance in the world.
