Can You Dance Dominican Bélé?

15 Nov 2007

After watching this video I got goose-bumps. Did you know? Bélé may be the oldest Creole dance from Dominica, which strongly reflects influences from African fertility dances. Our Dominican heritage is enrich with so many different influences – that’s why Dominicans are such unique people. Thanks to Jasmine of Swan Dive for sharing this timeless video.

I loved seeing and hearing it. Ruth and I have tried some dancing classes, but we both have two left feet, it seems. (No smart remarks about white people, please!)
