The Polka-Mazur finds its roots in the town and surrounding areas of Opoczno and was
danced by couples at wedding celebrations and family events. In the 1950’s the dance
was adapted and popularized by the Polish State Folk Ballet “Mazowsze,” and this
stylized-version was named “Tramblanka” (trahm-BLAHN-kah). So popular was this
new version that it was adopted by the local folk ensembles from the Opoczno region. It
is a light and happy dance and this version gives the dancers a chance to change partners
and share in the fun.
