Portuguese term

Dança de Roda

Portuguese to English Art/Literary Folklore dance
it is a list of typical Portuguese dance styles that a dancing group performs. I would like to know if there is a translation in English or if we just leave the source language term. Other dance styles in the list are: "Valsa de Dois Passos, Chotiça, Corridinho, Vira e Verde Gaio". Thanks!

i like the suggestions by lucio and maria jose for the first term but given that you have various others I'd recommend leaving them in the source language. this is quite common with such country specific names.
Peer comment(s):

agree R. Alex Jenkins : I agree. I don't think you need to translate the names, but the dances do need to specified as such, as types of dances.
