We perform traditional Dutch folk dances from all over Holland. We have an announcer who talks about the Dutch, e.g. Clogs, Windmills, Tulips etc., and introduces each dance. Music used is traditional. The group was formed in Melbourne in 1974, with the aim to retain and perform the traditional folk dances of Holland and to exhibit them here in Australia.
