This is an interesting video of an African dance ensemble. I have participated in African dance lessons since high school. Not only is it a lot of fun, it is a great workout. It is all about the beat and the rhythms. I knew an African drummer, and I learned a few techniques from him on the conga drums. I have found African music to be very vibrant, exciting and natural.

I have also done a lot of Irish dancing during and after high school. When I was in my Irish band, I crossed paths with a local Irish dance trope in Jackson, Mississippi frequently. We would have dances to raise money for local causes, and I would learn how to Irish dance. It is so much fun. If you ever have an opportunity to learn, it is worth trying. I thought this video was cute, and those kids are quite amazing.
