Dance Weekend wants your local Moves - how can you be rewarded?
Hiya Steemians - As promised I am handling one contest or bounty post per week around one (or even more) the below music tags. Last week it was Techno Friday - this week Dance Weekend is the topic. Last week over 40 Steemians got rewarded by the Bounty Post. So get into Dance Mood and engage - the bounty is about to get started. As outlined already there could be more of such posts depending on the engagement we see. So the more engagement, the more contests or higher bounties.

German Dance Style here
Tough to start this living in Germany, we are not extremely famous for our body movement capabilities as such but Germany has some local dance styles - I am showing you the Schuhplattler. The first one here is the extended the version, the so called "Schuhplattler Holzhacker Tanz".
This is a typical German dance - mainly performed in Bavaria (but also in Austria to be honest and fair). The locals usually wear traditional Bavarian costumes. The dance was originally used to woe women into marrying a man. While the dance men are clapping their hands and are slapping their thighs while jumping up and down with the rhythm of the music. Looks funny for people from abroad, even for Germans not living in Bavaria. The dance is still or again popular especially amongst youngsters, who love its colorful costumes and its bouncing, leaping, kicking and choreographed horseplay.
