Ey
people! I would like to describe one of my biggest passion- Afro Dance. This
dance come from, as its name says, from Africa. It's one of the most powerful
dances in the world so if you want to practise it, u should be ready for
everything.. Like strong sores and feet injury;) Afro dance is kind of
spiritual dance because it is danced during very important, local ceremonies.
Music is so spectular because it's played live, moreover drums like djembe or dun-dun make you wanna fly away,
give you energy so you feel like in a trance! There is a lot of jumping,
moving and shaking. One of the most important thing is that afro dancers should
have a good coordination because you have to change some moves really, really
fast.
In
the picture- 3 hours of Afro Dance workshops in Batucada dance studio. It was
so much fun and so much pain next day. :)
Ey
you all, I want to share with you a big problem which is made by our human race.
African elephants are on danger, more and more of these majestatic animals die
because of.. human's greed. An ivory is willingly buying by tourists and nobody
thinks that they tenotribute to elephants extinition. If we don't do anything,
they will die in about 10 years!!! How
we can help? The simplest way is just don't buy the ivory. If we can help them
more, we can donate the money for their protection in popular organisations
like: http://www.tuskusa.com/ or http://www.savetheelephants.org/ . The
elephants are the most inteligent animals for me, they have feelings just like
us, so we should say STOP ELEPHANT'S COACHING, STOP ILLEGAL TRAFFICKING and
STOP DEMAND! It's the voice of animals lovers, especially elephants lovers so
don't be neutral for elephants suffering and let the world know that we do not
need the ivory, we prefer to save the elephants!
As
I am an african history and culture passionate I would like to share with u a
little bit of my knowledge of the Black Continent. What is the door of no
return? It had started in XV ceintury and was persisting to XIX. It is located
in Ghana. It was a place from where white people (clolnizers) took Africans for
slavish work as they were their owns. Treated as things, not humans, were
transported by ships in inhuman conditions to another countries. A travel was
persisting something about 3 months or longer. During the travel a lot of
people died because nobody care about the salves. It's a dramatic history point
where is no information about how many Africans were died, it was just
uncountable..If you want to see what I am talking about,check out the link below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UsO4aYNFc9U Bless up, Paula
