résekkel

Résekkel is a traditional Hungarian folk dance that originated in the 19th century. It is characterized by its lively and energetic rhythm, typically performed in a circle or line formation. The dance is often accompanied by a traditional Hungarian folk music ensemble, which includes instruments such as the cimbalom, accordion, and violin.

The name "résekkel" translates to "with the heels" in English, referring to the distinctive stomping and clapping of the heels that is a prominent feature of the dance. This rhythmic pattern is often accompanied by the clapping of hands and the stomping of feet, creating a unique and infectious beat.

Résekkel is typically performed by groups of dancers, with each dancer taking turns leading the group in a series of intricate footwork patterns. The dance requires a high level of coordination and synchronization among the dancers, as well as a strong sense of rhythm and timing.

The dance is an important part of Hungarian cultural heritage, and is often performed at festivals, weddings, and other special occasions. It is also a popular form of entertainment at folk music festivals and cultural events around the world.
