Info on Havasi?

There are a ton of clips out there showing Havasi dance, but where can I find written information about it so I know what I'm looking at? Thanks in advance

Okay...Now I know this is an area ripe for study.

Hi there

There are not many things written about Romani Havasi, and also there are many missunderstandings about this kind of dance.
Maybe you can search internet for books about it, or find a teacher that is specified to this dance form and have lesson with him/her and ask info.
For me worked this way having lessons with Serkan and Ahmed Ozgun from Turkey (for cultural dancers always prefer the teacher to be from the exact country, its like first hand dance and info)

Hope this helps
