History of Dances of the Universal Peace Camps in Latvia.
The first DUP camp was organised in 1995 by James Burgess and his followers. There was a sequence of his camps till 2003. James was inviting other teachers to participate, so we had Glenda & Trevor (UK), Barbara Sitara& Daren (UK, Germany), Silje Devi and Maris (Estonia), Maliqa (UK), Shafia (now New Zealand) in our camps.
After James stopped organising camps there had been no camps in Latvia for 3 years, until in 2006 a local teacher Fatima started a new sequence. Her and Bashiran's company "Atman" organised 3 camps all together. In the first camp in 2006 there was invited Ralph Nimmann (UK) as a main teacher, in 2007 - Silje Devi (Estonia), in 2008 Wali & Arienna (Belgium) and besides them Karima and Shahodat (Russia), Prem&Sally (New Zealand).
