The
Gypsy Folk Ensemble is an ethnic and folk dance performing company
based in Los Angeles,
California which was formed in 1978 to preserve, perform and teach
traditional folk dances from countries around the world.
One of our primary goals has been to use dance to foster
awareness and appreciation of other cultures and peoples. Over the
years, the company has built a solid reputation for professionalism and
excellence.
GYPSY has been presenting school assemblies in California for
over 25 years and is a member of the Arts Community
Partnership Network
(ACPN) with the Los Angeles Unified School District.
The
company has also reached out to those unable to attend public
performances with a special series for senior citizens in retirement
and care facilities and children in hospitals.
GYPSY
has performed thousands of shows in theaters, festivals, schools and
libraries, and has appeared on television and in feature films. GYPSY
is
also involved in the teaching of ethnic dance to children and adults
and maintains its own dance studio, the Gypsy
Camp Ethnic Arts Center.
