Norwegian Folk Dance Hallingdans

The guy should impress the woman. He does a great job!

[@AstrisWorld]

I love this. I used to dance the female version of this. But I wish the person filming had angled the camera down just a bit, so we could see their legs and feet more, and less of the building and air above their heads! -- Growing up in Norway, in my mid-teens, I worked at this open-air folk museum.

[@Avertia]

Thanks! Yeah, I Just held the camera.. I did not think it would be this popular on KZbin, haha!

Я Русский, но корни по Отцовской линии Норвежские... Vakker!!!! Удивительно, как похожи Русские и Норвежские народные танцы, или может в каждом Fjord были свои танцы , как и наречия?

I NEED TO LEARN THISSS

[@niklasvilhelm7247]

It's quite hard on the feet but it's easy once you learn it

[@melvinklassen]

Hallingdal? That's a NO. The female dancer's dress is from the Telemark province. The fiddler's dress is also from Telemark (but it could be from the adjacent Setesdal province). The dance is a "gangar" ("walking-step") from Telemark. "Telegangar" music is always in 2/4 time. His figures are improvisational in order, but are definitely within the traditions of Telemark. She is free to react to his figures when he is doing the "laus" ("loose") figures. The trio is hired for the summer at the Bygdøy Outdoor Folkmuseum, near Oslo, to show Norwegian dances to the visitors. They do Short shows about once an hour -- definitely a highlight of one's explorations through the park.

Good channel About Norwegia dancing If you to learn You should wach

[@Blackphoenix32205]

I’m Scottish from my moms side and Italian from my fathers side, I am dating a Norwegian right now so I want to learn more about his culture. I wonder if he can do this dance with me

[@woelsp]

awesome! who is he?

[@sussyfallen2914]

Now the dumb thing is that we teach dumb hip hop/line dances we never use in stead of this at school.

[@rowaystarco]

Laus dans (the correct name that is actually used in Hallingdal) is actually quite similar to breakdancing in many ways. Usually a lot of acrobatics as a guy is showing off to win a woman. There's also a hat they need to kick off a stick, got to do a really high jump kick to get it down. But it would certainly be easy for a talented laus dancer to also learn breackancing and vice versa. The group "Frikar" is an example of very talented launs dancers.

[@Alucard45000]

You, person filming this.. Use a wide angle next time please, it just lower the camera angle so you can actually see the people and not 75% building and sky?

[@Avertia]

I will bring my professional gear the next time I randomly visit this place ✌️. He he I was at the theme park and then suddenly this happened. I though people would enjoy to watch it so I filmed with my phone 😅

[@Alucard45000]

@@Avertia the device being used to film it isn't the problem, it's the angle. Any phone can use a wide angle setting when filming.

[@whengrapespop5728]

@Freedom Watch There are many variants, but it’s Halling-Music, originated from a place called Hallindal in Norway. Here’s a beautiful piece: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gIWok5ubjK2BY6s
