EspañolKouyaga!
Title:
Kouyaga!
Description:
The Kouyaga dance from the Ivory Coast marks the initiation- a rite of passage into womanhood and manhood. That signals it is time for them to assume more responsibility. Mr. Melvin Deal commands the drummers, who start up the rhythm. The dancers follow through by clapping, singing, and dancing across the floor with arms up, over, and down, legs scurrying closely behind.
