The folk dance
‘’Călu arii’’ș
The world we are part of has always been rich in traditions and cultural customs. Traditional Romanian customs have ways
of expressing: music, choreography, gesture or mimic. These are meant to highlight the behavior and temper of the people,
but also to mark moments of joy in their lives. Romania is a beautiful country where Romanian traditions and customs are the
most beautiful elements of our culture.
The folk dance is well rooted in our traditions and we are glad because we manage to keep our traditions and customs as a
people.For me,the dace folk represent emotion,color,expression and reflect the experiences,the sprit and the energy of
romans.Any important event in our life,like the wedding,baptism and parties with friends,is marked by a folk dance
expressing the lust of life and our joy. In the dance parties the girls and boys got together and became friends, here they
started love stories and sometimes ended. The folk dance is the foundation of our country, so we should love country, music
and traditional dances.
One of the oldest dances is the dance of the’’Călușarii’’. This is more than a dance because it expresses spectacle,
grandeur, rhythm and life. Today, the dance of’’Călusarii’’is practiced exclusively in Muntenia and Oltenia. Its current goal is
to protect crops, animals and households from harm, but also to heal the diseases of the body and the mind. Dance requires
agility, strength, physical endurance, but also passion for life, love for people.
In conclusion,folk dance is a cultivated treasure from generation in generation and is a way to get in touch with the
port,the traditions and romain customs. Music is one of the most important parts of the existence of the Romanian people.
Since ancient times, dance has been the most popular form of entertainment. At every great holiday, all the villagers were
gathering in a place where they were dancing, eating and singing. Nowadays, it does not happen the same way as before, but
popular dances are just as important for the Romans.
