Gauden Bat dancers introduced a new dance last September at the Chino Basque Club annual picnic. It is a remix of the Aurresku Dance from Bizkaia. The dance is to the music of Kalakan – the Basque group who toured with Madonna in 2012. The dance begins with Christian Jaureguy, followed by Hannah Isom, Micaela Arambel, Jackie Iriart and Christina Iriart. Thank you Gauden Bat, for sharing this dance with us.
