Polka

Polka is a style of music and dance originating in Central Europe, that has become popular worldwide. It originated in the mid-19th century in Bohemia, a region of the Czech Republic. It is a lively, fast-paced style of music, characterized by its two-beat rhythm and a strong emphasis on the off-beat. It is typically played on an accordion and is often accompanied by other traditional instruments such as the violin, clarinet, and accordion. The dance that is associated with the polka is a lively couple's dance, where the couples circle each other in a line formation, or in a circle. It is a popular folk dance in many countries, including the Czech Republic, Poland, Germany, Austria, and Slovakia.
