How to dance Hopak BUT EASIER

Welcome to my video! Today I’m going to show you how to dance the Hopak, but a little easier. The Hopak is an energetic dance full of power and joy, whether it’s danced at parties or in competitions. But don’t worry, even if you’re a beginner, with my simpler version you’ll easily get into dancing the Hopak! Hopak is known for its jumps, quick foot movements and synchronization with the music. The basis of this dance is a combination of jumps, kicks, cartwheels and complex hand movements. My simpler version focuses on the basic elements of Hopak so you can learn and improve as you go. Be sure to warm up with light exercises before you start dancing to get your body ready for the movement. I will then show you step by step the different elements of Hopak dancing and explain how to ease into them. Please note that Hopak is a dance full of energy and physical activity. If you are uncomfortable or have health limitations, please adapt the exercises to your ability and remember your own safety. I am excited to introduce this simpler version of Hopak and help you discover the beauty of Slavic folklore. So let’s get to it! We’ll start with the first step and gradually piece all the elements together. Used song: Carnaval a moskau If you have any questions or want advice from me, write to me on discord.
