  1. I'm not gonna pick out a favourite African dance cuz I would be a HYPOCRITE if I say that cuz I always smile when I see AFRICAN dance and by gods their moves are absolutely wholesome….

  2. As someone with no spiritual connection to these traditions, I find this to be so cool and impressive. Like Kathakali and Kathak from India. I hope these traditions never die out and continue to remind future generations of our fun loving and simple roots before thermonuclear threat ever existed.

  3. oHAFRO das ist afrikanischer tanz, musik und trommelnn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! und um vieles besser als das nachahmen von hipp hopp und amerikanischer musik wie ihr auch schon mal gezeigt habt….. keine hipp hopp oder sonstwas aus amerika oder sonst woher kann da mithalten…also fördert das… hipp hopp ist im vergleich dazu langweilig

  4. 2:25 – What does it mean "this is no fit for a lady". Is this a dance that is connected to male dancers? And because of that and the respect for this tradition that type of dance is not performed by female dancers, because of their respect towards that said traditional male dancer's dance? Or do you mean something else? I mean you can't mean the heavy footwork, can you? I mean in european ballet, women do crazy footwork and nobody says "no fit for a woman". So I don't think it's that what you meant, but rather the respect/tradition thing? I don't try to insult you, I just think your sentence was very vague and it's difficult to understand what you actually meant by that.
    Anyways amazing video. It's fascinating how different, yet similarly interesting and creative those traditional dances are.
    I always liked that youtube video "Traditional Congolese Dance" from Group Ballet Arumbaya Ndendeli in Kinsha from August 2013. Except of the first minute with the singing, it has a very hypnotic (kinda detroit techno like) feel to it. But the dancing towards that music was also captivating, imo.

  5. i am 15 years old and almost cried watching this video. i’m a bit sensitive when it comes to things i find so beautiful. i’ve always loved learning about other cultures, and the diversity of african traditions really stick out to me. i wish a lot more people (especially people my age) learned and appreciated the beauty of these culture, and just culture in africa in general (that includes north african as well :D). i think all the cultures represented in this video are beautiful, and even more as well. i wish i could go to africa to see these dances in person. i’d love to see a traditional dance from ghana, as it is believed that on my mom’s side our ancestors are from there (i’m half black). i love that these traditions have stayed alive for so long and i hope traditions like the ones in the videos can be preserved for many years to come. ❤️ 😊

  6. I love all of these, but number 4 is my favorite. The talent is amazing. I only see the bottom parts of these dancers move while keeping their top part still. That is talent!!!
