Dabke is a traditional Levantine folk dance, typically performed in a line or circle formation. The word “dabke” comes from the Arabic word “dabkah,” which means “to stomp.” Dabke is often performed at weddings, festivals, and other social gatherings.
Dabke is a physically demanding dance that requires skill and coordination. The basic steps involve stomping the feet, clapping the hands, and moving the body in a fluid motion. There are many different variations of dabke, each with its own unique rhythm and style.
