The Group of Danses Portitxol de Xàbia has organized a meeting for all those fans of native dances that will be aimed at both those who are already initiated in this world and those who want to learn. The event, which they have called the I Trobada de "Tradidanses", will be held on 13 and 14 days in September and will feature Lutxo Palop as professor of the course of "traditional danses a l'aire de la Ribera".
Inscriptions to the course are now open, have a value of 10 euros and can be formalized via email or phone info@dansesportitxol.org 636 656 642. For those interested in participating and arriving from outside the Grup de Danses Portitxol of Javea, you have arranged accommodation at the Youth Hostel and food and fellowship dinner.
During the trobada a concert will also be performed by the well-known Pep Gimeno Botifarra accompanied by Ahmed Touzani in a show called "From band to band of the Mediterrani". The concert will take place on Saturday 13 at 23: 00 h. in the Conservatory Square and will be free.
I think all the cultural events that are celebrated on the occasion of the holidays are great, but I have (we have many) a problem: from the 6 day, the schedule of the municipal buses changes to the winter time !! I have been years - and I know that many more people too - protesting in all official media - including before the Mayor in person - for this absurd winter time, without achieving another answer that "is an old contract and cannot be changed" . At least, I think, summer time should continue throughout the month of September, as it is still the tourist season. And there are many who do not have a car. So we cannot enjoy a large part of the events, among them, the Portichol Dance Group, which I could see only once, and that is frankly good.
