Polkka is a lively Finnish folk dance characterized by its fast tempo and energetic movements. The term is also used to refer to the traditional music that accompanies the dance, typically featuring instruments like the Accordion and fiddle. The dance became popular in various parts of Europe, particularly in the 19th century, and has influenced numerous musical styles and performances. Additionally, "polkka" is sometimes associated with the Finnish word for "to poke" or "to push."
