Alick-Maud Pledge
Alick-Maud Pledge (1893–1949) was an English folk dance and gymnastics teacher. She came to France in 1926, following the call of Jaques-Dalcroze but became soon independent. In the New Education movement, she created the French associations Education and Movement and Friends of the Popular Dance. She influenced Marcelle Albert, Marinette Aristow-Journoud and Jean-Michel Guilcher who carried on with teaching folk dances in France.
