1988 in lappeenranta three different dances are typically danced to humppa music they existed long before the word humppa was coined one form of humppa dance is related to one step which arrived in finland 1913 in this kind of humppa both dancers take a step on each first beat on hump and progress to the direction of dance this is danced making turns in closed position or making figures by changing various open positions the second humppa form is related to two step which came to finland in 1910 this humppa has some rhythm and movement from samba and waltz a third form of dance nilkku is based on a slow slow quick quick rhythm the first quick step hardly takes any weight and gives the dance an appearance of limping 1 in the early 1970s pop music and dancing almost killed social
