Jenkka

Jenkka (Finnish pronunciation: [ˈjeŋkːɑ]) is a fast Finnish partner dance found in Finnish folk dance, the Finnish version of the schottische. It is danced to music in 24 or 44 time signature, with about 140 beats per minute. The dance arose in the mid-19th century, and was being danced in rural areas in the 1960s. Men and women do similar steps.
