stepuk

Stepuk is a traditional Russian folk dance that originated in the 19th century. It is performed by a group of dancers, typically consisting of four to eight people, and is characterized by its lively and rhythmic movements. The dance is often accompanied by traditional Russian music, such as the khorovod or the kolomeyka, and is typically performed in a circle or square formation.

The name "stepuk" is derived from the Russian word "step," which means "step," and "uk," which means "small." The dance is performed with small, quick steps, which give it its distinctive name. The movements are often synchronized and involve a combination of stomping, clapping, and hand movements.

Stepuk is a popular dance in Russia and is often performed at weddings, festivals, and other social events. It is also a popular subject for study and performance in Russian dance schools and universities. The dance is known for its energetic and lively nature, and is often described as a celebration of Russian culture and tradition.
