Local Hero: Michel Landry

*We are sad to say that this posting came in shortly before Michael passed away and is another testament to his legacy of good work and community support."

After decades teaching international dance, Michel Landry, assisted by his wife Arduina Alonzo, began teaching English Country Dance in Montreal in 2002. Undaunted by lingering anti-anglo prejudice amongst some francophones, they have introduced many to the pleasures of ECD, and continue to do so.
