Kuluküsimuste

Kuluküsimuste, also known as "kuluküsimused" in Estonian, refers to a traditional Estonian folk dance that originated in the 19th century. The dance is characterized by its lively and energetic movements, often performed in a circle or line formation. Kuluküsimuste is typically accompanied by traditional Estonian music, which includes instruments such as the kannel, vihuel, and accordion.

The dance is named after the "kulu," which is a type of traditional Estonian hat worn by the dancers. The term "küsimuste" refers to the rhythmic and repetitive nature of the dance, as the dancers often ask and answer questions in a playful manner. This interaction between the dancers adds a social and communal element to the performance.

Kuluküsimuste is often performed during folk festivals, weddings, and other cultural events in Estonia. The dance is also taught in schools and dance studios as a way to preserve and promote Estonian cultural heritage. Its energetic and joyful nature makes it a popular choice for both performers and spectators alike.
