Folk Dance

Folk Dance is difficult to define. For it to be folk dance, it needs to be spread by the folk, as opposed to the media. Some examples of this might be Square Dancing, or Contra Dancing. Something you go to dance school to learn, like Ballet, would not be Folk Dance. It's difficult to explain any of these dances without showing them, of course.
