Course contents
Dance steps of selected regions: students learn dance steps of regions individually. Emphasis is placed on precise technique in a given step. Specific performance of a step in a given region is the foundation for creation of the character of the region. Later, steps are arranged with pairs and with various pair holds.
Technique preparations for a folklore region: Steps with the character of a defined area are joined into a larger whole. Simple steps are rhythmically changed and later more complex steps are added. At the end special steps of a given area are covered.
Dance motifs and their variations: Each step has its own movement basis. The division and diversity in performance of steps create the regional differences (sometimes between neighboring villages). Through comparison and examples of particular differences in class, we improve and come close to the character and manner of the dance of a particular area.
