<!-- EDIT BELOW THIS LINE -- Similar to the other Dabke styles. Dabke Baalbackieh relies on the energy and enthusiasm of the dancers, where the steps should should the unified spirit of the group. Baalbacki Dabke has six basic types: Zeno (Kurdish origin), Al-Arja, Tirawi, Al-Askarie, Dal'ona (Northern style) and Bedouin style. The Baalbackian Dabke is a tribal group dance, with Bedouin roots. Dabke has even become part of the character of the Lebanese people, where the environment imposes the style of the dance so you can find in every region or family (clan) its own dances and rituals, according to its geography, starting with the Solh family in Baalbeck, where the Zakariah Solh (Abu Yahya) and Mohamad Solh (Abu Majid) were considered the Dabke masters in Baalbeck. People waited to watch Abou Yehya When he danced. He was considered the teacher who can give lessons in Dabke without him being a student to anyone. Facial expressions and Bodily movements full with pride were essential parts in the formulation of Abo Yehya's character and his dancing style. Another master is Doukhi Solh ,remembered to be the best dancer in Bekaa, a wedding was not considered a success unless he attends and performs. He played a major role in training members of the popular dancing groups Dabke Baalbaki. His signature was dancing with the hookah, the sword and even with daggers. When he performed in front of the Baalbek Festival Committee, Madame Jarrar admired his skills and talent, and asked him to help her train the band. Doukhi refused to charge any wages in exchange for the training, so he was given an honor card to attend all the concerts that take place in Baalbeck. He considered this to be the most important gift to him. His sons are still the best Dabke performers in Baalbeck and Lebanon. Kareem Solh (Abo Doukhe) is one of the living proofs of the legacy of his father Doukhi. In contrast to the local dabke troupes that used the Dabke Baalbackieh in event performances, Caracalla troupe took the game to a different level. Abdul-Halim Caracalla is considered the Maestro, the mind and the founder of the of Caracalla Theater. Born in Baalbeck 1938, his father is the poet Abbas Caracalla, nicknamed Cheikh-Al-Shabab, and his mother Ramzah Hamiyeh from the village of Taraya, known for its Tirawiye Dabke style. His brother is the Dabke master Omar Caracalla. He was the champion of Lebanon in pole vault, the 100 and 400 m races, as well as in the high jump. Caracalla studied the dance theater in London and Paris between 1962 and 1966, then he officially established with his brother Omar Caracalla the Caracalla troupe in 1968, adopting his theatrical ideas from the beauty of Baalbek and from the Bedouin lifestyle, which was obvious in the first performance 'The Black Tents'. His role in preserving culture is thus unprecedented!

There is no reliable scientific study that explores origins of Dabke in Baalback; however, the Lebanese musician Zaki Nassif believes that the Dabke has no history, and that it resulted from knocking the legs off the roofs of dirt houses to settle them so that the rain does not leak inside the house. He adds that the Syriac word "da aona ", meaning the aid, became later on Aldaluna, Al Mani Hawara and other Dabke song types.
