The Utrecht Morris Team (UMT) is one of the thousands of groups throughout the world who perform Morris dances. Morris is one of the oldest types of dance known, with variations traced through various regions of Europe. The earliest reports date from the middle ages, but these indicate that the Morris must be much older. Despite its advanced age, the Morris is an extremely energetic and spectacular type of dance. The Morris is danced with handkerchiefs, sticks and bells, but there are, for instance, also dance styles that make use of wooden swords and flexible metal 'rappers'.
