The show starts with dance Krakowiak, then we present our five national dances with short description about each of them. The second part include some of our traditions ex. Lajkonik – a funny person on a horse and a legend about it. Afterwards we dance with the guests and play some folk game. This part can be modified easily. There is a possibility to join two parts into one, make it shorter or a bit longer.
All descriptions are at the beginning so the program is more impulsive and spectacular. We recommend it if the breathtaking show is more expected than dancing and playing guests together.
Program:
Krakowiak, mazur, krakowiak, kujawiak, oberek, several polka.
Additionally there is a possibility to extend the program with Lajkonik, or dancing with the guests but because of playback music any changes during a performance are no possible, so we suggest the “Evening with folklore” option.
