This joyful and flirtatious dance comes from the region of Central Ukraine, near Zaporizhzhia — the historic homeland of the Kozaks, who were legendary horsemen. In it, a young man and woman engage in playful courtship, their steps echoing the rhythm of horses at full stride. The stamping, prancing, and bounding footwork captures both the strength of the Kozak spirit and the lighthearted charm of youthful flirtation.
