    ❤thank you my friend, your videos help me with refreshing my dance skills. Even though I'm 69 now and energy fluctuates I hope sometime to teach small mini classes. My dear Father Solomon H😊rn taught International folk dance class at SJSU decades ago, rest his soul. If you had a minute to mention where you download your songs from, I am trying find how to have a playlist w/o wifi. No worries if you'd rather not. Blessings to you and yours ✌🏻✌🏿🐦🎐☮🎶🍰🎠👋🏿👋🏻🥰

    I learned this dance at overnight camp when I was 9 in 1992. It took me a decade to find the song but I never found the correct dance back when I was looking two years ago. Decided to look again and you've posted this in that time! Thank you!! We used to dance outside the dining hall before lunch or dinner, and there could be a dozen or a hundred kids all doing this dance. I loved it so much!!

      All notations for this dance indicate it is from Pirin. The original recording was brought to the United States by Yves Morea (in the late 1960s - early 1970s) who learned the dance from members of a folk ensemble from the town of Sandanski, Blagoevgrad District, Bulgaria. I understand this area was attributed to the Kingdom of Bulgaria in 1913. In any event it is a lively and interesting dance in a complex rhythm.

    I learned this dance almost 60 years ago and have done it ever since with the kick with the left foot to start the fourth measure ending the turn to the right so that the kick is in the new direction. With so many other dances being done to this music on the internet, it's fun to see one essentially the same as what I learned.

  • @zeljkojergan

    From the music, rhythm, dance directions, foot work etc - doesn’t have to anything to do with Croatian culture. Pathetic try of dance creator.

    Croatian music? Yes, actually Croatian pop music by Jasmin Stavros. Croatian dance? Not all, a few grapevines and a few cherkessias...! Not the right part of the world! Very sad.

    • @folkdancewithhenry5122
      @folkdancewithhenry5122 2 місяці тому

      You are correct. Ira Weisburd selects nice music and choreographs steps to that; sometimes based on authentic footwork from the area of the music and sometimes to match his interpretation of steps that fit. Other Croatian tunes on this channel, like Raca Plava Po Dravi, Moja Diridika and Nabrala Je should seem more appropriate for the region. As folk dance is meant for the population in an area and not for performance or outside instruction, it is brought to us by visitors to the area or ethnomusicologists and, often, will not quite match what the locals may think is right. Our adapted dances are enjoyed here nonetheless and provide a taste, or sometimes more, of other cultures.

      @@folkdancewithhenry5122: it is indeed much fun to move on different musics; but it is not appropriate to say that's a croatian dance when the music is from Croatia, a polish dance when the music is from Poland, a romanian dance when the music is from Romania, etc. and even more when the steps that «fit» seem to have the very same common origin..!!! 🕺

    In horse training you have two major movements to teach the horse: rustem and buiestru. Rustem is the forward-backward movement while buiestru is side-walking movement. Does not have anything to do with russians, it's only a dance that mimics the training of a young horse (cârlan). So watch your attitude when dancing this dance. Just imagine that you are a proud young horse that doesn't want to make the movements but his legs are whipped so it moves according to the trainer. Attitude is everything ;) Great dancing btw!
