Trojak (dance)

Trojak ("threesome", "trio", in Polish) is a Silesian folk dance. It is usually performed in groups of three: one male dancer and two female dancers. Trojak's music has two distinct parts, each having its own tempo and metre.

Ignoring the footwork, the figures may have the following arrangements.


 * All three move in sync from the same foot.
 * The boy dances with one girl, the second one dancing alone, then the boy switches the girl.
 * Girls are rolling on and then rolling off the arms.
 * The trio forms a circle
 * The boy and the girls separate and move in the opposite directions, then join again.
