These kids are incredible dancers. They work themselves up into an almost trance like frenzy. There are sections in the dance where you can tell they are working up to something. Then they cut loose and really "tear up the carpet".




Hundreds of people showed up. We were all held spellbound for the entire performance.

This dance was about the AIDS epidemic that is ravaging their community, like much of Africa.




Near the end the audience was invited to come down and learn some of the dance steps.

Then the drums fired up and all hell broke lose.
