1. folk dancing

   A folk dance is a dance that reflects the life of the people of a certain country or region. Not all ethnic dances are folk dances. For example, ritual dances or dances of ritual origin are not considered to be folk dances. Ritual dances are usually called "Religious dances" because of their purpose. The terms "ethnic" and "traditional" are used when it is required to emphasize the cultural roots of the dance. In this sense, nearly all folk dances are ethnic ones. If some dances, such as polka, cross ethnic boundaries and even cross the boundary between "folk" and "ballroom dance", ethnic differences are often considerable enough to mention.

1. folk dancing

   Folk dancing refers to traditional dances that have evolved over time within specific communities or regions. These dances are usually performed at social gatherings, cultural events or festivals, and are often tied to historical events, agricultural practices, or traditional customs and beliefs. Each dance typically has specific steps, movements, and rhythms, and can be performed individually, in pairs, or in groups. Unlike professional or modern dance forms, folk dances are typically passed down through generations orally or by observation and imitation rather than formal training or written notation.
