Lezginka is a folk dance of the indigenous people of the Caucasus, the embodiment of color national culture. Passionate, magical movements to incendiary music, lively emotions and a confident look of a man, gentle movements of a girl: all this makes up the uniqueness of the Lezgins' magical action.

Lezginka folk dance. origins

The origin of the Caucasian Lezginka began in the mountains of Dagestan. It was there that in the 19th century the warriors performed a special dance. In those days, it was customary to call representatives of the mountain peoples "Lezgins" - hence the name came from. But for different nationalities Caucasian title dance style could "sound" differently:

• Halkar.
• Kartuli or lekuri.
• Zilka-kaft or tymbyl-kaft.

Having once seen a burning lezginka performed by the indigenous inhabitants of the Caucasus, it is already impossible to forget it - magic captivates the heart so much rhythmic movements. When we contemplate the dance of a guy and a girl, we understand that the fiery, sparkling wave of the man’s arms is the personification of the pride of a predatory eagle, and the smooth and modest women’s are of innocent swan beauty. The dance is literally permeated with the spirit of history, taking us back to antiquity, when the dancers alternated circles, thus speaking sacrificial animals, gaining harmony of unity with the higher forces of nature.

Differences in lezginki among different peoples

Apart from classic version Lezginka performances, there are a number of dances that are somewhat different from the traditional:

• Chechen;
• Karachay dance;
• Islamey of the Kabardians;
• Three-pair Ossetian lezginka.

The main discrepancy in variations lies in the rhythm of the movements performed. For example, in the Chechen lezginka, the performers seem to “tear”, “toss” and “ignite”, but the Ossetians show their character more calmly and smoothly.

Having gone a long way of existence from the origins to today, Lezginka managed to stay true to traditions and retain its original appearance. A sense of tact is instilled in Caucasians with early childhood Therefore, even among young men there are many talented performers who are fluent in the art of folk dance.

Many Russian boys and girls also strive to achieve mastery in the performance of lezginka. There are a few effective ways quick learning of folk dance at home, as well as a number of mandatory rules that all novice dancers should familiarize themselves with.

What beginners need to know

Anyone who is ready to thoroughly and responsibly approach the process can learn lezginka. Before starting training, you need to find out what the foundations are in dance. So, moving from one position to another, you can reach certain heights in the art of dancing.

Correct posture is more than half of the future success in the study of the Caucasian Lezginka. The first task of all choreographers is to “overcome” the habit of slouching in beginners. It is the even and beautiful back that acts as a kind of “highlight” of the lezginka.

By the eyes of a person, one can determine his spiritual state, reveal the feelings and experiences that he experiences in currently. So in lezginka, close attention is paid to the look. The resourceful Caucasian guys even developed a “gaze language”, with the help of which they demonstrate interest in the chosen one in the dance. This way of "secret communication" is different for boys and girls: if a man has to express strengths his character, looking straight into the eyes of a partner, then for girls, on the contrary, it is customary to stay modest and look away.

Hand movements - in lezginka there are about seven basic positions, which are complemented by options for setting and forms in the process of action.

For the legs, there are three types of basic movements, each of them requires a detailed and thorough study in all nuances:

• Simple, single by the type of "picker".
• "Characteristic" - for example, a solo cascade.
• Special step.

The emotionality of the dance is also the basis of the lezginka, the sincere performance of which brings pleasure not only to the audience, but also to the dancer. A wide smile, burning eyes and a passionate heart - that's what every "participant" of the dance action should see and feel.

Lessons for beginners

For guys

Guys through lezginka can express masculinity, ardor and invincibility. It is not for nothing that initially the Caucasian dance was performed by warriors. And there is still a separate type of performance, where only men take part.

Way	Description	Efficiency of the method (pros and cons)
Passing a paid training course with a group	This method of training involves group lessons with a professional choreographer.	The advantages of this teaching method are intensive training with a competent teacher. Organization of a convenient class schedule, the opportunity to ask the instructor a question during the dance process, to communicate with interested people. Typically, such groups recruit 8-10 participants, which eliminates the chances of individual communication with the choreographer. He will not be able to pay attention to each member of the team for 1.5-2 hours of class. And the cost of courses is quite high.
Individual sessions	Individual approach to training from an experienced choreographer.	This method of learning to dance lezginka is the most effective, but it comes out at a cost large sum which is not affordable for everyone.
"Friendly" activities	You can ask to teach dance to a good friend who knows the art of dance, or better, a representative of the peoples of the Caucasus himself.	This is the easiest and most “comfortable” way of learning, because classes can be arranged at home for free or for a symbolic gratitude to a friend. However, not everyone is the lucky ones in the circle of acquaintances who have a real Caucasian. In addition, the practical skills gained in the process of home schooling will differ from those that can be obtained from the pros.
Video tutorials, online learning	This method involves conducting dance classes on your own using DVDs or online video lessons.	Learning to dance lezginka using video materials is a difficult process, because no one will point out mistakes, there is no way to ask a question about the technique for performing a particular movement. You need to have self-discipline and efficiency in order to fully devote yourself to the lessons.
Co-education with friends	You can unite in a group of the same interested friends in order to “overcome” all the difficulties of the learning process together.	The probability of recruiting a friendly team, unfortunately, is not too high. If possible, comradely support, joint work on mistakes, the opportunity in practice to “feel” the power of “sign language” Caucasian people- all this will play a positive role in honing skills. But, you will remain at the amateur level. Yes, and in order to gather in a large group, you will have to rent a room, which will require money.

However, over time, girls began to enter the dance pattern. This is how a variant of a pair dance appeared, where women perform not only choreographic sketches and pas, but also play a role in the entire “theatrical” production of a dance action.

Why girls should dance lezginka

A Caucasian girl who can masterfully dance a lezginka is proud, especially family members. Unlike men, women show themselves in the dance more restrained, but also passionately at the same time - smooth and light movements of the arms and legs are replaced by swift swings and rhythmic steps.

Every girl should try to learn lezginka, because dance is not only a demonstration of talent and an expression of respect for traditions or a manifestation of interest in cultural heritage other nationality. This is a great way to keep fit, develop flexibility and plasticity.

Lezginka for children

Children learn to dance easily, so enroll your child (brother, sister) in a choreographic circle or folk Caucasian dance ensemble. In an atmosphere where the true spirit of Lezginka is present, together with the team and under the strict guidance of an experienced coach, you can achieve the best results.

Video plot

Why do people prefer to work out at home?

"Home" conditions are most conducive to comfortable learning:

• The search for musical accompaniment depends on the taste of the novice dancer - the main thing is to choose rhythmic music. Sometimes it’s enough to set the right pace for a start, by simply clapping your hands.
• Many are embarrassed to openly show emotions in public. At home, you can smile broadly without any hesitation, express violent feelings and “shoot” your eyes in front of a mirror without outside spectators, reinforcing the “acting game” with characteristic movements and gestures.
• By learning on your own, you can adjust the training schedule to your own regime. It is important to take a disciplined approach to the learning process, not allowing yourself to “relax”, because no one can control the absence of classes.
• "Home" training excludes the financial costs for the services of professional choreographers, all the necessary information can be obtained from video lessons, in which they will "tell" in detail and step by step about the technique of performing lezginka.

Lezginka is not only a combination of beautiful movements and a crazy rhythm, but also a great way to keep the body in good physical shape, the ability to tone muscles and organs, prolong youth and recharge with energy.

Every novice dancer from the first lessons will be able to note:

• Improvement of mood and feeling of cheerfulness. Many people start the morning not with exercises, but with the performance of lezginka. It becomes a good tradition not only to increase the effectiveness of the learning process, but also good way“wake up”, having received a charge of positive energy for the whole day.
• Beautiful shape and harmony. Practice has proven that in 2.5 hours of rhythmic dancing to inspiring music, you can lose up to 1 kg excess weight.
• The formation of a proud posture, which is useful not only for setting the right movements, but also for health in general.
• The ability to coordinate movements: the acquisition of dexterity and flexibility.
• The development of grace, plasticity and graceful gait - all this helps the muscles to acquire elasticity, which significantly reduces the risk of injuries and sprains.
• Confidence is the key to success in any endeavor. Since the basis of lezginka is the emotional component, the ability to convey the whole bright spectrum of feelings through the eyes will be useful not only for a bewitching performance, but also in everyday life.

You can learn how to dance lezginka on your own, but stocking up on all the necessary video materials and other attributes will not be enough.
