The
ballets
Our dances are still those that animated the village weddings
and festivals. On these occasions the halberd, a three pointed iron
stick with the emblem of Courmayeur on it, is always present. This
is the stick on which the women of the group, on their wedding day,
hang the coloured ribbon that they wear around waist.
These traditions are still alive today, thanks to the Badochys
Folk Group who, with the same spirit of old, maintains the customs
in the local festivals and communicates these usages making them known
outside the Aosta Valley.
