Orawian Dancing

Sunday 30 May 2004 | general

Highlander music is an acquired taste, which I personally haven’t completely acquired.

Highlander dancing, though, is a different story. Both graceful and almost violently energetic, it seems to require knees of steel and lungs to match.

Pictured here is the men’s dance called “Zbójnicki” (pronounced “zbouy-nits-key”). If men were birds, this dance would be struting their plummage. In other words, it’s to show their strength, agility, and endurance to potential mates.
