Dances AROUND THE WORLD


By Henry “Buzz” Glass and Rosemary Hallum, Ph.D.
With special material by Judy Job Callahan, M.A.

Dances Around the World presents a wide variety of international dances currently popular today and
being danced by people throughout the world. The dances have been selected for their unique national color
in movement and music, and also for their practical use in school and recreation. They are recorded in
appropriate national styles, using authentic instruments of the various countries.

The dances are interesting and varied, while technically easy to perform and interpret. They can be
quickly taught and easily comprehended. Movement sequences used are basic and range from walking and
running steps, to polkas, two steps, waltzes, and schottisches, thus exposing the students to fundamental
dance patterns.

The dances are divided between couple dances, group dances, and dances without partners. They include
both traditional and new – line dances, mixers, fun dances, and group social dances.

1. NEVER ON SUNDAY (Greece)
This dance, which is now enjoyed worldwide, had its beginnings in Pennsylvania in the 1940s.
Originally, Greek steps were adapted to the Greek song “Miserlou.” Later, the popular movie
Never on Sunday provided another song for the same dance.
Formation: A broken circle, with leader at the R end. No partners necessary. Hands are joined at
shoulder level with bent elbows in a “W” position. May also be done in individual lines.
Basic Dance Description

Measures
1. Step and Point, Grapevine
1 Step R in place (ct. 1), hold ct.2), point L toe in front of R (ct.3) and then swing L bwd in an
arc to end in back of R heel (ct.4), with weight still on RF.
2 Moving R (CCW) do a grapevine: step L in back of R (ct.1), step R swd R (ct.2), step L
crossed over in front of R and the same time pivot on L to face CW (cts. 3-4).
2. Two-Steps
3 Moving CW, do a two-step RLR.
4 Moving bwd, CCW, do a two step LRL. On the last step L, pivot to face center to end the
basic dance pattern.
Never On Sunday Variations
From the influence of the Greek taverna dance, the Slow Hasapiko (pronounced Has-sah-pick-oh), folk
dancers have added variations as follows:
Measures
1. Step and Point; Grapevine
1-2 Do movements as described in meas. 1-2.
2. Two Step with Pivot
3 Moving CW, do a two-step RLR, pivoting on the R to face CCW.
4 Moving CCW, do a two-step LRL, pivoting on L to face center.
3. Singles (Swivels)
5 Step on R across L (crossed in front of L), turning slightly L. Pivot on R and on L across R,
turning slightly R. Do with a twisting action, like a swivel.
6 Repeat, stepping R over L and L over R, ending facing CW.
4. Two-Steps (as in the Basic Dance)
7-8 Moving CW, do a two-step RLR. To widen the circle again, move diag bwd R (CCW)
with a two-step LRL. End facing COH.
Suggested Pattern: Do two repetitions of the basic dance (meas. 1-4, then meas. 1-4 again), then do the
complete set of Never on Sunday variations in order ONCE as described in meas. 1-8. Continue.

2. NIXIE DANCE (Denmark)


According to the story of this dance, the Danish Nigarepolska, (pronounced Nee-gahr-ur-pol-skuh)
or Nixie Dance, the Nixie or water spirit appears only at certain times during the year. If the Nixie
dances before anyone, that person must follow the Nixie wherever he or she goes.
Formation: Single circle, all facing center. One person is in the center (B or G) and is the
LEADER. All have hands on hips.
Dance Description
Measures
1. Four Bleking Steps
1-4 Leader positions himself in front of someone in the circle (traditionally a person of
the opposite sex, although not necessarily). All do 4 slow bleking steps, LRLR, one per
measure (jump on LF and extend RF fwd with heel on the floor and toe up. Continue,
alternating feet).
2. Clap, Run, and Stamp
1-8 All clap on the loud accent. As they clap, dancers in the circle begin 21 running steps in
place starting L, while the leader turns to face the opp direction and runs 21 steps (starting L)
within the circle, with his ptner following in back of him. Partner places both hands on the
Leader’s shoulders (or hips). They end in front of another person in the circle. All stamp twice
(R,L) on the 2 final accents.
Repeat whole dance. In pt. 1 the Leader and his followers are in line, hands on hips, standing in front of a
new partner in the circle. In pt. 2 their line reverses direction and all run to end in front of another new
partner. Thus the line keeps multiplying and facing the reverse direction each time at the beginning of pt.2.
Variation: Start with 2 or more Leaders. Each leads his own line. If lines use up all students in the class
before the end of the music, lines may hook on to each other, as in the long conga line.

3. CHINESE FRIENDSHIP DANCE (People’s Republic of China)


This Friendship Dance is done by boys and girls throughout the People’s Republic of China. The
main idea of the dance is to promote friendship by meeting different people and getting to know
them. The music was recorded in China.
Formation: Single circle, all facing center, hands not joined. One person is the LEADER or IT in
the center. (After students learn the dance, there may be several Leaders.)
Dance Description
Measures
A. Introduction
1-4 Wait, leaning head L (cts 1-2) and R (cts 3-4) in time with the music.
1. Leader Finds a Friend (this section of the music is marked by 3 rhythm stick
accents ♪♪♪) Students in circle lean L tilting head L and clapping both hands at
shoulder level in front of body (cts 1-2), then lean R, tilt head R and clap (cts.3-4),
continuing to alternate sides in time with the music throughout the dance.
1-2 Leader takes 4 walking steps (or skipping or sliding steps) fwd LRLR, then “looks” to the
L 2 cts (placing LH horizontally above L eye, palm down), and R 2 cts (placing RH
above R eye) as if looking for a friend.
3 Leader walks (or skips or slides) 4 steps LRLR, ending in front of a person in the
circle.
4 Leader “greets” him by holding both hands and shaking them down and up (cts. 1-2
and down and up (cts. 3-4).
2. The Friends Move Together (this music section begins with a triangle accent).
1-4 The Leader and his/her friend move together doing any movement they wish
that is appropriate to the music, or a typical Chinese step (see following list).
3. Skip and Wave Goodbye (this music section begins with a rhythm stick accent).
1 Ptners join inside hands and skip fwd around CCW in the center of the circle 4 cts.
2 Ptners stop, face each other, and using hand that was joined to ptner, wave good-
bye to each other with a horizontal movement (like a windshield wiper)
smile and say “Dzai-Jian” (pronounced z-eye jen, meaning “See you again.”)
Repeat whole dance, with each ptner becoming a Leader and finding a friend, so that the number of
cpls multiplies each time.
Variation: On the last repetition of the dance (the 4th time), when the Leaders join hands
with their friends, ALL may join hands in a large circle and slide (or skip) L (CW) 8 cts,
slide (or skip) R (CCW) 8 cts., stand and face center and swing arms in twd the center of the circle
(ct. l), out away from the center (ct. 2), in (ct. 3) and out (ct.4). All wave with LH, smile and say
”Dzai-Jian.” May add lunge on RF twd outside of circle on the wave.

Typical Chinese movement patterns that may be used in Step 2:

A. Link R elbows and skip around in place, lifting feet and pointing toes down.
( The L arm may be lifted, elbow bent, palm upward and fingers pointed twd own head).

B. Ptners hold both hands and do seesaw movement one going up while the other goes down and
vice versa. (May begin with slight knee bend and then gradually deeper bends and add jumps
upward, so the movements become gradually larger.)

C. Holding ptner’s LH and moving around in circle in place, do 2 step-hops fwd (L step-hop, R
step-hop), with the free knee bent and lifted up in front, toe pointed down, and then 4 runs LRLR,
leaning fwd with free leg lifted to the rear. Repeat all.

D. Ptners face and each does chugs (short jumps about 2” long, with feet remaining in contact with
and sliding on floor) diag fwd L back to place, diag fwd R, back to place, and repeat. On the fwd
chugs knees are bent and arms are lifted out-and-up in a “V” position with fingers outstretched on
the back to place chugs, legs are straight, with arms relaxed, bending elbows but not bringing arms
back down to sides.

E. Ptners hold R hands, with arms extended at shoulder level and step away from ptner on LF,
bending L knee and holding R leg straight (almost like a lunge), both feet parallel, and L elbow bent
with L palm upward and held directly above head (cts. 1-2). Ptners are facing opp directions, with
their R shoulders and R hips adjacent.

Exchange positions, stepping on RF in place (ct.3) walking twd ptner on LF (ct.4) while dropping
hands and turning CW, then holding L hands and “lunging” on R leg in opp position (as in a 3-step
turn). Repeat.
4. HE’EIA BAMBOO DANCE (HAWAII)
He’eia (pronounced Hey-ey-ee-uh) is an ancient Hawaiian canoe dance done by children and
adults of both sexes. The movements tell about a canoe trip for spearing fish. This version of the
dance is done in a sitting position, using one puili (pronounced Poo-ee-lee, a fringed bamboo stick).
If puilis are unavailable, used rolled-up newspaper sections secured with tape, 12-20” plastic tubes,
or another substitute.

ahead to close up the circle and form a revolving wheel rotating CCW. If Bs move swd L twd the
center of the circle when placing LH on shoulder of B ahead, it will save time in forming the circle.
Or if group is large, several smaller circles may be formed.

circles.) Boys, facing center, clap own hands twice (cts. 1 and), then extend hands, palm outward, to
B on each side and clap hands with them once shoulder high (ct. 2). Continue repeating this
clapping pattern ( ♫ ♪ ). At the end of this part, Bs turn and face new partner (whatever G is in
back of them) to repeat the dance. Any “extras” can go to the center of the circle to find another
extra there as a partner.

Note: Extra Bs may join the dance during Pt. 2, joining the circle without a partner. Extra Gs may
join the dance during Pt. 3, adding to the fun of finding a new partner.
