    Question: What Is Folk Dance? Answer: Folk dance is a form of dance developed by a group of people that reflects the traditional life of the people of a certain country or region. Folk dancing originated in the 18th century to distinguish dance forms of common people from those of the upper classes. The steps of folk dances are passed through generations, rarely being changed. Folk dancing is usually associated with social activities, although some folk dances are performed competitively. Many children's games are traditional folk dances, such as "The Farmer in the Dell" and "London Bridge." Today, popular folk dances include square dancing, clogging, contra dancing, highland dancing and Irish jigs. Related Articles

    North Cyprus Folk Dancing
    Cypriot men used to dance mostly during wedding festivities, festivals and at various junkets on high days and holidays, but also in coffee-houses in the evenings, on threshing-floors, and wherever men gathered together. Social convention restricted women to mainly dancing at weddings. Folk dances are the expression of feelings, thoughts and enjoyment of the people. The origin of folk dancing is very old. It may even be said to be related to shamanist ceremonies and early religious and incantational worship. In the period we are considering, roughly from 1910 to the seventies, the basic dance of both men and women was the "kartchilamas" performed by a confronted pair of dancers. The "kartchilamas" consists of a series of dances that vary slightly according to the performers, the locality, or the era. These dances are essentially parts of a whole, or suite, the parts being known as the "kartchilamas" or "first", "second", "third", "fourth", and "fifth" or "balos", rounded off by other dances such as the "syrtos", "zeipekkikos", and "mandra". A feast would usually end with one of the pan-hellenic dances, the "kalamatianos", and a circle-dance in which all might join.

    Hoodening as it is now
    Hoodening is an East Kent winter custom dating back many centuries. In its current form, a small band of villagers spend around four days before Christmas touring local pubs and private parties, performing a humorous play along the theme of death and resurrection, drinking a lot of beer, and collecting some money for charity. A new play is written each year in rhyming couplets by one of the troupe, and references to recent events (local, national and international) are frequently included, although the setting is based on a ploughing team from the 19th Century. Over the last few years numerous other "Hoodening" groups have also appeared in Kent. Most of these appear to be derived from Morris teams; some focus on singing, others on theatre (the scripts are often quite similar to Mumming plays, and tend not to change much from year to year).
