so was this a wedding event ? it rather looks it and im impressed they are all looking well rehearsed 

 

First video is a wedding reception.  I think the bride either had been to that dance school or was one of the owners.  Going on memory there and a different person's posting of it.

On the other hand, it might just be a dance that everyone in the region knows.

 

Here is some dancing at a reception in Healdsburg CA, just ordinary people, not rehearsed, but a close knit ethnic community in which the kids are brought up learning the dances

 

 

If you search YouTube for kolomeyka you can find a fair number of videos, and in some of them you can see around the edges moms teaching toddlers the steps.

The crew did a step dance. When the bride and little un came out it looked like the opening jig to a 2 hand reel, in my mis spent youth I learned ceilidh dancing from a fairly successful teaching family with lots of awards.
