Táncház draws on traditions from across the regions of the Kingdom of Hungary (most notably Transylvania), especially music and dance.
The táncház traditions were recreated as authentically as possible, a process aided by fairly detailed research on Hungarian culture.
In addition, ethnic Hungarians outside of Hungary, such as those in Transylvania, Slovakia, and the Siret River valley of Moldavia, are also celebrated by the táncház movement.
Within the United States, Hungarian dance groups such as Csűrdöngölő (in New Jersey), Tisza Ensemble (in Washington, D.C.), Kárpátok (in Los Angeles), Életfa (in New York and New Jersey), and Csárdás (in Cleveland) perform on stage bringing the feel of the táncház to general audiences, and camps such as Ti Ti Tábor (in Washington state) and Csipke (in Michigan) bring dance teachers and musicians from Hungary and Transylvania to teach North Americans the music and dance of the Hungarian peoples.
The podcast Tanchaz Talk, hosted by Kalman Magyar, is the world’s only English-language program focusing primarily on Hungarian folk music.
