The polka was originally a Czech peasant dance. The dance was first introduced into the ballrooms of Prague in 1835. The name of the dance (pulka) is Czech for "half-step,” referring to the rapid shift from one foot to the other. The polka is the state dance of Wisconsin. In the 1990’s, polka regained popularity among country-western dancers. The Basic Step of the Polka PLAY Windows Media Quicktime RealPlayer Flash ... Video Help Polka Learning Area The Moves The Music History The Moves The Music History Here are some "universal tips" for learning how to dance a partner dance such as polka. First, acquire a few audio CD's of the music and play the music over and over in your home or automoble. Next, count the step timing in time to the music. This you can do sitting down, perhaps while driving. For example, for waltz, call out the 1,2,3 1,2,3 step timing in time to the music. For foxtrot, call out the step timing using slows and quicks. For cha cha and rumba, it's important to recognize the first beat of each measure. Otherwise you may dance on the incorrect beat. If necessary, have your instructor assist you in learning to count the step in time to the music. Dancing in correct time to the music is absolutely essential. Continue this "sitting down and listening" exercise for as long as necessary until you can easily and automatically count the step in time to the music.

Encyclopedia o f Chicago ... User's Guide Entries : Polka Entries P Polka Next Polka Polka music, which embodies both specific dances and cultural contexts, is the common secular music of Chicago's European ethnic communities. Because of its complex ethnic history and the nationwide presence of several Chicago ethnic groups, Chicago's role as a center for polka has been exceptionally significant throughout the twentieth century. Polka distinguishes the soundscape of Chicago and the suburbs with both local practices and extensive exchange, thereby allowing ethnic communities to use music to identify their own ethnic boundaries and to cross these to join other groups in the performance of ethnicity. The history of polka in Chicago has unfolded in three distinctive phases: the 1880s until World War I World War II era. European immigrants and the confluence of ethnic musical styles in the first phase underwent extensive consolidation during the second, when Chicago became a center for publishing and recording ethnic music and for building large dance halls (e.g., the Trianon and

Even confirmed fans think of the stereotype pictures of dotty brass bands and folksy dancers. The chord sequence is simple but for all its ease, Polka is no dance without draft. What sounds so lively and vivid is often about an unsuccessful love and the supposed best medicine against heart ache: alcohol. Melancholy is a part of the harmonies overcome by rhythm: linking arms, turn around, gallop away. The origins of this two-four time dance are really unknown. It's roots may be in Poland or Bohemia. It's first boom began in Central Europe of the 19th century. Parallel to political affairs, the bourgeoisie in a one-two-step rushed along the dance floor and the style had street credibility, even among workers and peasants. No other dance than the impetuous Polka showed more promises for body touch. It's export forced the speed, as well as the ardent moment. Many immigrants felt homeless, when the dance together with Germans, Polish, Bohemians and Moravia came to the United States more than hundred years ago. In the straight-laced America they were thirsty for the joys of life. The thirst was extinguished with beer and the gloomy thoughts were wiped out with Polka. Even the social significance of Polka varies in a considerable way. Humpa with its excessive 'log house' festivals is very popular in the sparsely populated Finland. The Tsigane brass bands from the Balkans have an understanding of craftsmen: play, play, play - at name-days, weddings, pruning ceremonies or harvest festivals.

Wisconsin Polka Hall of Fame Established in 1996 Mission Statement The Wisconsin Polka Hall of Fame will recognize the bands and leaders, as well as those who teach polka music, teach polka dancing, promote polkas, and any accomplishments in the field of polka music. The Hall of Fame will establish a membership of polka band members, leaders and polka music fans to biennially, in the odd numbered years, nominate and thereafter vote for the person(s) of their choice in each fame category specified; and will also conduct the nomination and election of board members and officers in the even number years. Nominees and Inductees The selecting and voting for the nominees and inductees into the hall of fame is done by the membership at large, with each member, the board and trustees included, casting one vote. The process begins in late summer when nomination requests are mailed to the entire roster of members. The returned forms are presented, unopened, to a certified public accountant for tabulation, and the results are returned to the WPHOF Board. The qualified nominees are posted on a ballot in their appropriate categories and again, it is sent to the entire membership for voting. The tabulation process is repeated and the resulting information permits the board to manufacture the awards, plaques, etc. This, in late fall, culminates in the awards ceremony.
