Content of the course
Lachia is another distinctive region in Eastern Moravia. Today's perception of the region of Lašsko as an equal counterpart to Wallachia, Haná, Horácko and Slovácko has become established due to various circumstances, among which the peculiarities of dialectology and the distinctive features of regional culture in general have played a significant role. Lachia is not a homogenous region. It is divided into several sub-regions according to its landscape, its costume, certain types of dances and, above all, the style and character of the dance steps.
Thematic headings:
- Wallachian-Lasatian border: Zhnily from Měrkovice, Zvrtek from Gruně, Čeladenský from Kozlovice, Dymak from Kozlovice, Hulan from Měrkovice, Kalamajka from Kozlovice, Kohut from Kunčice, Koval from Kozlovice, Lendr from Kozlovice, Pilky from Kozlovice and from Lhotka pod Ondřejníkem
- Mountain Lachia: Starodávný from Gruně, Zvrtek from Staré Hamry, Zvrtek from the border of Kysuce, Obertas from the border of Kysuce, Čardaš from Konečná, Babsky from Korně, Čeladenský from Ostravice, Dratenik from Ostravice, Hulan from Gruně, Kalamajka from Staré Hamry, Ruska polka from Malenovice, Slezsky čardaš from Ostravice, Vojtek from Bílá,
- Lowland Lachia: Starodávný from Sedliště, Taněc from Krmelín, Zvrtek from Stará vesica nad Ondřejnicí, Cigan from Krmelín, Dratenik from Krmelín, Dymak from Stará Bělá, Galaty from Janovice, Kožuch podolsky from Hukvald, from Krmelín, Požehnany from Janovice, Ruska polka from Janovice, from Krmelín, Šateček from Janovice, Zbujan from Morávka,
- Stramberk: Ignac Manda and Smutna cerka from Stramberk,
e) Lachian jump: solo, pair and quadruple jump, Lachian jump Ondraš.
Unlike the Wallachian Odzemek, which is danced to one basic song, there are a number of songs for the Lašský jump. The dance elements of the jump are characterised by the vigour and „edginess“ of some of the figures, which contrast interestingly with the light, soft figures.
- Listeners try to create their own sequence of ciphers from the possibilities widely offered by the material studied. The Lachian Jump is an improvisational affair for each dancer, so everyone seeks their own distinctive style of Lachian Jump.

Note
Teaching combines monological, applied, interactive teaching methods, encourages self-study in the context of non-contact learning and student's critical thinking. The student is encouraged to create his/her own portfolio based on the acquisition of his/her own experience and skills.
Distance contact will be provided:
- phone, email, video calls
- through group platforms for communication between students (social networks, internet, apps,
moodle, etc.)
The students' independent activity is aimed at obtaining information about the region, processing and using it in teaching folk dances, preparing documents for teaching folk dance and creating performances for students of art schools, amateur and professional groups.
The student's independent work within the framework of non-contact teaching consists of:
- studying selected literature on given topics, searching the literature for essential information on the discussed area
- searching for information in internet sources
- visiting at least one folklore festival and submitting a written reflection
The listener prepares a technical tutorial after each area covered and searches for dances in the literature related to the area.
The student will search for a sample of the dance on YouTube or the Strážnice DVD, evaluate the movement and dance material, analyse the movement vocabulary of the area and prepare a short reflection.
The student prepares a term paper on the assigned topic (5-6 NS range) and writes a lesson for the selected region.
