The main goal of Estonian Traditional Music Center (EPMK) is to teach and support Estonian traditional music through live performances and the encouragement of active participation. It aims to strengthen and promote Estonian ethnic and regional identity and, in doing so, enhance the feeling of national dignity. EPMK organises a year-round programme - concerts, festivals, traditional music camps, workshops, courses and instrument classes - in order to fulfil its goals. Dance House is a folk dance workshop that includes live musicians and dancers. Our wish is to learn from the experience of Dance Houses in Romania, Poland and France and Sweden through observation and participation. We have encountered that live music and dancing are growing increasingly more apart in the contemporary world. What we have also observed that due to classical music and dance education, changes have occurred in the ways in which people play instruments and dance. Folk dance groups tend to perform choreographic dances using recorded music. The tradition of dancing to live music and improvising during the dance is about to disappear. We started organising Dance House evenings in 2011. They take place 8 times in a calendar year. The main outcome of the project is to improve the teaching methodology and organising skills. We wish to gain new experience in keeping the tradition of Dance House alive and vibrant. Also it is important to increase the number of contacts with organisations within the same field. We would like to visit a national dance camp called "Kalotaszegi népzene és néptánctábor" in the Transylvanian area of Romania at the beginning of August. The camp has taken place for 23 years and the organiser is the Foundation of Kallós Zoltán. In Poland, we are going to visit a dance camp organised by Dom Tanca. It takes place in the village of Sedek, district of Kielce, which is situated in the eastern part of Poland. The camp takes place in August and it is focused on the Polish national dance „mazurka“ and its varieties. In the Auvergne district of France, a folk music and dance course "Le grand stage et bal trad' de saint flour" is given every spring. In Sweden, we are going to visit Eric Sahlström Institute which is specialised in increasing teaching competence and developing the methodology in a field of folk dance. There are 8 people from EPMK involved in organising and teaching at the Dance House. The roles have been divided to cover all the areas from organising to teaching.
