Folk dance is a very unique expression of culture, that not many get to watch, let alone experience. In this short video project I attempt to share a perspective of folk dance not widely seen. Small moments can be missed simply watching a dance, and in the description I have highlighted these moments to give a new perspective on the delivery of folk art. The two camera angles represent the two perspectives, the performer and the audience and can be immediately compared with both shared at the same time.

The dance itself is performed by Volya Ukrainian Dance Ensemble, and is a Ukrainian cultural dance.

Significant moments in clip:
0:01 - My partner lights up as she turns around to dance together
0:11 - Perspective of grabbing the whip from my partner
0:17 - Girls do a move where they toss their skirts, and a bit that I have done for a while is look away as they do so
0:28 - Shared moment with new partner
0:33 - being "off stage" while others are still dancing
