About us
Dance is a bridge between people
Founded in 2017, Zora has grown from 13 dancers into a family of more than 50 — of every age, level, and nationality.
Club Zora was created in 2017 in The Hague, with a mission to preserve and share Bulgarian folklore with our community in the Netherlands.
We believe that dance is a bridge between people — it connects us, inspires us, and reminds us where we come from.
We work with a professional choreographer and assistant leaders who choose dances from Bulgaria's folklore regions — Shopluk, Thrace, the North, the Rhodopes, and Pirin. We dance the popular horo known from village squares and celebrations, and revive authentic local dances preserved across the country.
Mission & values
- Preserve and share Bulgarian traditions far from home.
- Bring the Bulgarian community in The Hague and the region together through events and initiatives.
- Accessibility — dance is for everyone, whatever your age or experience.
- The joy of movement — we dance to recharge, not to compete.
- Friendship and support — we build a community, not just a group.
- Show the beauty of Bulgarian folklore — at festivals, city events, private celebrations, and workshops.
