The choreographic composition of the dance consisted of traditional drawings (circle, asterisk, snake, gate), from different transitions in pairs or lines with the change of partners and circling in pairs, holding hands. At the wedding, “Lyavonikha” was the main dance, and at evening parties it was performed after the “Lyantsey” and was accompanied by various humorous refrains, for example:
And Lyavonіha wasn’t okay,
She gave me a slurry
Crumpled, not rocked,
The grease is pazyzyany.
