The Poetic Bride

The Poetic Bride is a group celebration dance originating in The Robust Berry. The form guides dancers during improvised performances. The dance is accompanied by The Rhyming Lace as the dancers act out any composition of The East Guilds. The dancers perform in a circle, moving to the music's bulifo rhythm. The passive dance is punctuated by relaxed footwork, counterclockwise eighth turns and powerful spins.
