Thank you for your great effort to help make ukrainian culture widespread🎉
It's my pleasure
I'm so proud my country 🇺🇦 MY UKRAINE 😍🇺🇦
GLORY TO UKRAINE 💪💙💛
Елементи Гопака є неймовірно фізично важкими, захоплююся учасниками ансамблів, які виконують їх так майстерно.
I was speaking to one of the female dancer just awhile ago
Це ж єлементи бойового гопака.
Actually this is folk ( dancing) adaptation of this type of art. Firstly hopak was in cossacks tradition like "combat hopak" - type of fighting art. Also hightly reccomend to listen "lytavry" - traditional cossacks fighting music. Greetings from Lviv❤
Much love as always Nadiya 🇬🇧❤️🇺🇦
Дякую вам, дядечко Момо.Ви-прекрасні,ваша щирість це скарб.
Вітаю пане МОМО! Тут було показано не багато елементів, все залежить від розміру сцени. Так , "Гопак" - це бойове мистецтво козаків і також танок. Колір шаровар (штанів) у козаків теж має значення, це рівень бойової підготовки, це як у каратистів колір поясу. Жінки долучились до танцю трохи пізніше, так, у них немає високих стрибкових елементів а є дуже складні обертові моменти, тут не було показано. Щодо коліру взуття, то в старі часи червоне взуття було святковим( не повсякденним). Дякую за реакцію! Доречі, Ваша вступна частина українською👍.
Thank you very much Oleg, I have read so much about this dance and the history etc it’s amazing read for everybody to enjoy. Also thank you for mention my Poor attempt of speaking Ukrainian
Усе почалося на Запорізькій Січі. Козак потрапляв на Хортицю і його одразу скеровували на навчання- читати-писати, грати на музичних інструментах і танцювати
Останній пункт видавався найбільш дивним, але це тільки спочатку. Бо гопак - танець не простий. Це своєрідна розминка, під час якої відпрацьовували основні бойові елементи - блискавичну швидкість, потужні удари рук і ніг, сталеву стійка й тактику. Згодом гопак, завуальоване під танець бойове мистецтво, поширився і за межі Запорізької Січі. Декілька років таких танців, і хлопчина перетворювався на справжнього воїна. Бо виконувати такі рухи без натренованого тіла просто нереально.Дякую !
Thing is there will be so many people that would it came from another country

Hello, Uncle Momo!
Since you made a reaction to the Ukrainian dance Hopak, I want to thank you for it (you will receive a small present from me). But I will write about it at the end of the comment.
First, let me explain that Hopak is a traditional Ukrainian war dance of Zaporizhzhia (Cossack) origin. The name of the dance comes from the exclamation "hop!" during its performance. The size is 2/4. It is performed solo or in groups at a fast pace with virtuoso dizzying jumps. Hopak originated in the life of the Cossack Zaporozhian Army. Originally performed by men, modern hopak is danced by both men and women, but the male part remains the leading one. The performance of hopak includes elements of choreographic improvisation: jumps, crouches, spins, and other virtuoso dance moves. There are different variants of hopak - solo, paired, group. Hopak often has a majestic, heroic character. Hopak is a kind of dance in which Cossacks demonstrated their character, strength, courage, and competed in agility. The Cossack dancers stood in a circle performing arbitrary movements, and their comrades supported them with shouts of "Hop!" and "Hey!".
And now about my present to you)
Hopak is a very popular dance in Ukraine among young people. I am giving you a link to a Povzunec dance (type of Hopak) performed by school boys. You won't find this video, which has more than 4 million views on UA-cam, because it's hidden and not searchable. You can only watch it through a direct link. This video was uploaded by my wife, but she hid it over time because there are too many negative comments about Ukraine written by Russians. The dance became part of the golden fund of national choreographic art. Enjoy your viewing!

It’s fantastic 🎉
А ще повзунець входить до 10 найтяжчих танців у виконанні і здається займає перше місце якщо я не помиляюсь
I haven’t seen it yet, can you ask your wife if I can react to it please instead of me watching it❤️
@@UNCLEMOMO my wife said she’d love it if you did a reaction to this video!
@@V.Bartovshchuk brilliant tell your wife thank you 🙏🏽
Гопак- це найскладніший танець в усьому світі. Неймовірний та прекрасний!!!! Слава Україні!!!
You're right when you say that many people don't know who Cossacks were and to which cultural heritage they belong. Many think they are Russians, and there's nothing more wrong. There's a reason why does someone think so. Cause the name "Cossack" is often linked to the Kuban region, once a Ukrainian territory, later conquered by Russia.
The Cossacks are Ukrainian warriors who founded one of the first democratic states in Europe, Zaporìzhska Sich(from Zaporizhzhia, the name of a Ukrainian city). Otaman (major of the army and head of State), was elected annually. But there weren't only Ukrainians, the Cossacks welcomed willing men from other countries, who wanted to become free and well-paid warriors. So, the foreign legion already existed then. They were very brave and skilled warriors. There was an expression: "A Cossack isn't afraid of anyone but his wife".😀That because there has always been an undeclared matriarchy in Ukraine. Women have always been respected. Because they were both gentle and feminine and strong-willed and brave.
Since the Cossack was a warrior, initially hopac wasn't a dance, but a fight technique, later revisited and transformed into dance.
It's a real joy to see a person from the other country who disseminates and introduces the culture of Ukraine. Thanks Momo! 👊❤️
I was just having a conversation with one of the female dancers I hope I get her full story I would love to hear it. Hope your well beautiful ♥️
Дякую за вашу працю, за намагання зрозуміти нас, нашу культуру, наше мистецтво❤
Як же приємно чути дядечка Момо, який розмовляє з нами українською❤ 🤗 І мені дуже подобаються відео, які ви обираєте для вашого каналу. Дякую!
How lovely to read Marina comment this morning 🇬🇧♥️🇺🇦
I respect your interest to different cultures and music culture too. We know too little about it. Often we don’t know the culture of our neighbours. Moreover the more distant neighbours. How many interesting things there are in the world!
The inspiration that is shared is hardly look upon
Дякую, дякую, дякую, дядько МОМО!!!!!!!Ти дуже гарно говориш українською мовою!
I don’t think it’s that good but hopefully it will be, there’s still a lot of Ukrainian that don’t understand what I’m saying
@@UNCLEMOMO I understood every word and it was easy. 🙂
Thank you for this reaction!
You returned me back to the past when I was the part of this wonderful ensemble (I’ve been dancing for 8 years in choreographic school which is a preparation for ensemble, then you can enter the studio-in which you dance for 2 years, and only after you could join the ensemble itself; competition is crazy and to get into ensemble is very complicated)
That’s legendary ensemble with long history
And I’m very happy I was part of it💙💛
React to more dances, please🥰
YOU?? Wow big wow tell me more about your journey ❤️
@@UNCLEMOMO I joined choreographic school when I was 8♥️
3 times a week we had ballet lessons, then traditional dances, we’ve been taught a lot about how you need to show emotions during dancing, how to love your culture and country
Competition is crazy even in choreographic school
To get a place to perform on stage is very hard, we worked a lot, there was no possibility to gain any weight (even 1 kg) because we needed to be all very fit
With ensemble we travelled through all Ukraine, as well in lots European countries
These memories are incredible!)
@@kateryna_ukrainian do you still dance?
@@UNCLEMOMO no)
I sing 😅
Hello! Thanks for your reactions. I always watch with pleasure.
In general, Hopak is a Cossack combat dance, something like capoeiro. Imagine one of those guys who perform tricks with a saber or a sword ... Do not approach such a warrior ... At one time, Cossacks were valued and as mercenaries were expensive.
Thanks for the info!
I think that was absolutely beautiful! The strength for men has to be painful … all was mesmerizing. I’d have to say stoned or inebriated as well - the pain factor ! It’s a man thing ! 😂👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤️❤️❤️❤️🎉🎉🎉🎉loved it !
What a fountain of energy.. Thanks for posting this!!!
Супер респект за українську!!!
Ооооо!!! Яка чудова українська мова!!! 👏👏👏👏💙💛💙💛👍👍👍👍

This is really interesting content, why don't people support it (I don't mean only Ukrainian songs, but in general, it's quite interesting)
Comment in support of this video
hopac is men's army training dance of cossaks.
so the clothing related to central, easten regions of UA (cossak state regions):
men's clothing in video is for military campaigns btw, as it is very comfy, in civil life cossaks were like very dandy: expensive fabrics "coats", fur collars, hats, drinking coffe(UA coffe culture came from the south of UA) and smoring lulka)) also here you do not see much ethnik cossak hair done and traditional ear rings marking single son in family (left ear), last man of the family (2 ears)
girls: you can distingvish regions by ornaments and hair embeleshments.
Kyiv, central, east of UA: flovers ornaments, can be rombs, red&black colors for ornaments, red boots, hair jerverly vinok with flovers and ribbons as in video or single ribbon around the head, can be with flowers stepped near ears under the ribbon or white handkerchief namitka.
south of UA: can be birds in ornaments, coverfull ornamets other similar to central
or pretty different qirimli ornaments (crimea tatar)& haire embeleshment feska, long dreesess, hair can be 2 braids for yand, multiple braids for yangest.
west of UA: more geomentical ornaments ofter like diagonal lines on sleaves, colors green&red, hair is done with handkerchief, handkerchief with pompoms, white handkerchief namitka, single ribbon
So I was right about it being regions 😎
Це неймовірно!🎉
Thanks for such a video and your thoutghs about Hopak. It's a very famous dance in Ukraine and in the world. Was doing it as a child for 10 years. THAT was a time! Thanks a lot!
I will start going back into Ukrainian history and music in December.
Morissette sang Never Enough for David Foster 6 days in a row and The Bodyguard Medly day2 to day 6 and kept wowing David Foster!Facts: Originally she has to sing fo 3 days, but it ended singing 6 whole nights because of her exceptional performance!Sky is the limit for Morissette!! Please check these out! Thank you soo much!
Здорово блестяще привет из Питера
Thank you from London ✌️
Hey, Uncle Momo! Thanks for your reaction, I've been waiting for it 😊
I"ll copy my comment about hopak ( your video ARKUSH - Happy End), maybe you've missed it
The roots of hopak go back to cossack times, it was a part of their martial training. The chronicles of those times say that when a foreign traveler was asked to describe the cossacks’ training, he said, “they just dance and sing”) This dance is distinguished by specific movements which witness its historical roots, some of them develop strength and agility, the others train unit cohesion and synchronised actions required in combat. There are also a lot of whirling movements which train not only agility but also can help in achieving a trance state. It was a common practice of so-called cossacks characternyk, who possessed some magic powers.
Several years ago, I watched an interview with the head of the jury at the world karate championship where he expressed his admiration and surprise at the hopak performance, which he saw in one of the Ukrainian theaters. He said, “those guys have 10 times more powerful skills than any karate champion!” I’m not sure about that but it was nice to hear)
In 1940, the Ukrainian dancer and choreographer Pavlo Virsky founded the Ukrainian National Folk Dance Ensemble and created the modern choreography of hopak, which became the classical version of this dance, combining several Ukrainian folk dances.
Here is the link to one of the fullest versions of hopak:
ua-cam.com/video/AOgdrrzOi1A/v-deo.html
I’d like to note, that at 7:30 there is a 70-seconds part with a Russian dance called Yablochko. I’m not sure why it’s included in this performance, maybe because of its similarity with hopak but still, it looks rather odd to me)
Thank you sweetheart your always looking out for me ❤️❤️
Росіяни хотіли створити щось схоже на гопак, так у XX столітті виник їхній танок "Яблочко".
@@helenskirta3983 це зрозуміло, мені не зрозуміло, чому його включили в програму нашого ансамблю
Thanks for your reaction and support ❤
No problem 😊
Dear, Dear Maurice! Thank you so much!😍as you know already, бойовий гопак та повзунець are fight dances) for training Cossaks between batlles. But women) dance hopac also) ❤🌻
Now Ballet 🩰 is Always spectacular 😅
Thanks for your reaction and your ukrainian speaking) really appreciate it 😊
My pleasure 😊
Thank you very much.
I'am dancing on this video!
Don’t hurt yourself 🥸
I used to have a boyfriend who danced in this ensemble - in this dance among others. His balls survived intact, I assure you. 😂
lol glad they are still intact
The Zaporozian kozaks were skillful and Universal warriors. They could be a Horseman, infantry and artillery, and anything else possible in those times.
Besides that they made their own weapons and harnesses for the horses, the horse carts, and all the war machines.
Your Ukrainian is simply wonderful) Thank you, it's very, very nice)))
Trying ❤️❤️
Thank you!!!
🇺🇦❤️☀️
You are so welcome!
Uncle Momo, great on you trying to speak Ukrainian. I only recommend is to slow down when you speak it will help great deal to reduce accent.
Thank you for reaction!
Best wishes, and love from Ukraine ❤🇺🇦
Thank you so much I see you when I get there
Гарно вдається українська❤ дякую вуйче Момо)))
Thank you too for watching my reaction respect
I don´t know whether it has something to do with alkohol. Cossacs didn*t appreciate drinking. We are not Russians and alcohol doesn*t play the same role in our culture.
This dance, especially for men is a military training, that they did even ih the military training was forbidden. They transformed it into a dance. That*s why you see so much of kicking elements. There exists an Ukrainian martiary art "battle hopak". It is not well known, but it has a lot of movements from these dances.
Why do they show the Cossacks drinking, Fighting challenging combat etc and being drunk in movies??
@@UNCLEMOMO who made these movies? Who has paid for these movies? There is a lot of Propaganda in movies. Russians have always made Ukranians to look worse, more stupid, more primitiv. Even if the movie ist made in Ukraine, there always enough people, who were sponsored by russians.
Think logically. The cossaks should always be ready to start a battle. Tatars, Turks, Russians, Polish people. The enemy could come from everywhere. A couple of drunkards couldnt have had so much success, did they?
Cossacs were wery strict with alkohol consumption. They could even kill one of them, if je was drunk before the battle. On the other side, the gossips, thar cossacs are dtinkards were sometimes good gor cossacs themselves. On Christmas 1675 the Crimean Khan expected that all the Cossaks would we drunk and decided to attack them. His misconcepzion costed him several damage of his army.
@@UNCLEMOMO what movies for example?

Thank you so much 🇬🇧😇🇺🇦
Mersi beaucoup ❤
Thank you from the bottom of my heart💙💛
You’re more thank welcome
There is another difficult Cossack dance ---- Повзунець (Povzunets). Its name is from ukrainian word to crawl. The warriors who dance this way were scouts. They often laid down in the long grass and spend their time on squats.
Now there are special warriors who use their tactic.
I heard a lot of the dances are military
You can google old photo from 1981 where King Charles 3 dancing Hopak :)
He used to be a great dancer
Щиро дякую. Приємно чути вас українською❤
Thank you Helen it’s nice for my attempt to be called Ukrainian
Рекомендую до перегляду бойовий гопак
Ваша українська неймовірна, дякую
Awwww thank you
The MC hammer point just funny as helllllliiio😂
Hopak is really a very physically and technically tough and demanding dance, because it is not just a dance, it's a martial art in connection with dance. It's like the Maori has their unique way of demotivating their enemy, and we Ukrainians have ours :) Ukrainian army went into battle dancing as if flirting with death and showing the enemy that nothing scares us, we're ready to die in this fight, and we will dancing! Hopak is a vivid example of how strong-spirited Ukrainians have always been to this time 🇺🇦 Word Cossack means "free man" who invites death to his dance ✊ Thank you for your support of Ukraine for all this time!
I don’t think there’s another country that doesn’t this I could be wrong
Українською?? It is a great! Thank you!
You made my day!
thank you for watching my reaction
On the basis of Hopak, the Ukrainians created a combat Hopak. You will see for yourself. The boys had elements that could be used to defend themselves. Look for such a video somehow.
Олег Вы ошиблись сначала появился боевой гопак у казаков как тренировки и без девушек, а потом как танец но с девушками.
Super, thank you❤

Hello 👋
Hi how are you
I like your ukrainian, well done! This a civil hopak but a lot of those movements came from kombat hopak which is extremely difficult to find in modern Ukraine.
Гопак это шедеврально.
