The oberek, also called obertas or ober, is a lively Polish dance. The name “Oberek” is derived from “obracać się” which in Polish means “to spin”. This dance consists of many lifts and jumps. ^[1]. It is performed at a much quicker pace than the Polish waltz and is one of the national dances of Poland. This is the second-most popular dance in Polish-American music, after the polka.

 

History:

 

Polish folk dances (singular: taniec ludowy, pronounced [ˈtaɲɛts luˈdɔvɨ]; plural: tańce ludowe [ˈtaɲtsɛ luˈdɔvɛ]) tend to be lively, energetic, and joyful. Hops, twirls, and athletic movements are common. Many dances involve a circle (Polish: koło [ˈkɔwɔ] “circle”, kołem [ˈkɔwɛm] “in a circle”).

Clothing is usually colorful. In addition, women often wear coral necklaces, particularly red ones. They also decorate their hair with flowers or ribbons. . Mens’ hats may also feature decorations, particularly in southern regions.
