Welcome

Greetings and welcome to CLUB CCD 2! This is a continuation of Club CCD (https://clubccd.blogspot.com/), which has reached capacity for new photos, but which is still active. Please make all new posts here rather than at Club CCD. The main discussion site, where most people post, is CancanGroup.io (https://groups.io/g/CancanGroup). Please go there for daily text postings. These are sites for the discussion and appreciation of the Cancan in all its forms, from its genesis in Paris during La Belle Epoche, to its appearance in London, San Francisco and The Old West. Owned and operated by the online cancan community, CCD2 is open to everybody with a genuine interest in the World's Greatest Dance. Please note, however, that CCD2 is a G-Rated group, so please don't post anything objectionable. While the content of this site may be described as slightly 'risque,' this is not an adult community in any sense of the word, and anything deemed inappropriate will be deleted immediately.

Die Western-Showtanzgruppe der Winnetou-Spiele


 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OU3CNhgWrBo

" Saloon-Atmosphäre zieht ein, wenn die Western-Showtanzgruppe der Winnetou-Spiele nach jeder Vorstellung im großen Zelt ihre wirbelnden Choreografien darbietet. Vor Jahren von Veronika Schichta gegründet, zeigt die Gruppe heuer zwei Choreografien von ihr und zwei von Connie Huppmann. „Für unsere Show wurden prächtige Kleider genäht, nach historischem Vorbild und mit allem, was damals dazugehörte: Spitzenunterhosen, Netzstrümpfe, Strumpfbänder, Schnürstiefel und Korsagen“, berichtet Connie Huppmann. Etwa eine viertel Stunde lang unterhält die Gruppe ihr Publikum mit Western-Tanz, Line Dance und Cancan. So tanzen die vier Darstellerinnen und die vier Darsteller - die auch bei der Winnetou-Aufführung dabei sind - etwa zur Musik von Jacques Offenbachs „Cancan“. Ein grandioser Ausklang der Winnetou-Spiele. Quelle: www.winnetouspiele-wagram.at © 2023 | http://www.wf-video.at"

Бал пчеловодов 2018 канкан

The Evil Dancers of the Czech Republic.  Seen before.  Reposted by Hot dance1.  Most definitely worth another look.  One of the top 10 royal flashes.  Skirts come off halfway through.
