 Stepping on Our Toes: Some Background on Branles
A: The branle, whose name derives from the French verb branier (to sway from side to side), was mentioned by Arena in 1536, but it was not until Arbeau's work of 1589 that we gain a clear picture of the ways these branles were performed.
Branles are mentioned frequently in texts from later period; however, they are never again described in great detail, because the manner of their dancing was assumed to be known to later readers.
Arbeau tells us that the dance is "proper to youth, agreeable to the old and suitable to all."(4) We assume that in general, Arbeau is referring to people of the upper class, although he does state that some vigourous branles are danced by manservants and chambermaids.

 Arbeau's Horse's Branle in the SCA
The Horse's Branle, or Branle de Chevaux, is one of the most common dances in the Laurel Kingdoms.
There are many possible arrangements: a line of couples, one couple behind the next; a line of couples sideways, alternating men and women; a large circle of alternating men and women; straight lines of men facing their partners making straight lines of women, and so forth.
Since all the other branles have the circle as a whole going left and right, and Arbeau uniformly identifies the man as starting the dance, I suggest the couples move first to the man's left and then to the man's right, following the arc of the circle of dancers.

 Western Social Dance
Arbeau's branles are distinguished by circles of couples who always begin by stepping sideways to the left; they are danced to tunes in duple, triple, and mixed meters, with regular and irregular phrases and are noted for their repeated patterns of footwork.
The first type is the simple branles, which consist of sideways sequences of single or double steps, such as "Branle Simple" (See Video Clip 40), and "Branle Double." (See Video Clip 41).
The second type is the mixed branles, which consist of single or double steps (See Video Clip 43, and Video Clip 44), to the side, mixed with jumps on one or both legs, and often accompanied by music in mixed meters.
