  1. My late dad is one of the originators of Atiliogwu this dance did no justice to it, as I can remember every step of it. It’s usually a magical dance. If he was here he wouldn’t mind teaching at no cost cos he is a lover of music

  2. THIS IS ATILOGWU AT ITS BEST💪 ESPECIALLY THE GIRLS 👧 WHO ARE SO GRACEFUL AND MAJESTIC 👍 I EARNED THE RIGHT TO SAY ALL THIS, BECAUSE I DANCED ATILOGWU MYSELF GROWING UP, IN FACT I DID PERFORM BEFORE HUNDREDS, IF NOT THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE, ONE OCCASION WAS DURING A CELEBRATION/COMMEMORATION OF NIGERIA’S INDEPENDENCE. THIS IS INDEED HONORABLE AND MEMORABLE.

  3. THIS IS THE BEST ETILOGWU VERSION. THIS IS WHAT ETILOGWU SOUNDS AND LOOKS AND FEELS LIKE, ESPECIALLY BY THE GIRLS WHO DANCED EITH STYLE AND AMAZING ELEGANCE- WELL CHOREOGRAPHED AND BEAUTIFULLY PERFORMED; IT IS A MASTERPIECE AND PERFORMANCE PAR EXCELLENCE 💪✌️😊✅🫶❤️

  4. I suspect Igbos are ancient people who had direct connection with God at some point. Igbos do not understand the gold they have in their flute music. If you have your own country and welcome world leaders like this, it will be all over the global news and people will be asking who are these people. There is something special and spiritual about the flute music, sort of a connection to God. It's like the Igbo ancestors used it to invoke their Gods and ancestors. Once the the Gods and ancestors hear the flute, they come around and stay among you but you don't see them!

  5. I just found out I have Igbo blood and it makes so much sense I wet to a Afro Caribbean party where the DJ blended t the sound of drums and other instruments and I did these moves without ever seeing this or learning it came from my soul I’m so grateful the ancestors were with me and for so long I wanted to move to Georgia and I’m seeing who to connect with when I finally get there this is dope❤ ❤

    I loved the Atilogwu dance. The rhythm ,movements and steps are fantastic. None else can claim it. I salute you African people for your talents and performances.
