Svenska

Swedish dance terms

There are in many cases difficult for me to know if a direct translation of Swedish dance term makes sense in a foreign language.. For this reason, in many places on this site the Swedish name is used, with a link to this site where the meaning of the name is explained. If there is a proper translation of any of these terms to English, I would appreciate to be informed about this.
