- The Kilumi Dance, The dance of the spirits, the dance to appease the spirits was normally performed after sacrifice. After all was done in the shrine as the men came out of the shrine women would be waiting for a signal to begin the dance. It began with libation of beer then the dance would begin. It featured multiple whistles being blown and rapid body gyrations and use of the shoulders to dance. These particular one which we were granted permission to record had brought dancers from all over Kambaland.There was a troupe belonging to a famous Magician called Nganda from Machakos, there was Kithio Kya Muukamba from Kibwezi, Kithio kya Nzaui and solo dancers and entusiasts from Kitui and Mwingi and the Host Kithio Kya Katetani from Emali/Mulala Ward of Makueni Counnty in Kenya .For the dance to be performed there has to be a permit from the local chief - this is how Africans have come to hate their culture with the coming of foreign religions - Why seek a permit to worship? Maybe with awakening we will revert to our culture and will no longer see it as criminal to worship God in the only way we know.Welcome and enjoy.
Deep respect to Mutuko Wa Muindi and all the devoted traditionalists in Kenya facing stigmatization from religious fanatics and a colonized mindset, still fighting a strategic battle to keep the African spirits alive
Thanks so very kindly. Together we will get there .
Yes,well said.I add to say that I AM ready now to let my culture colonize my mind and every thing,ready to venture in and out of my fellow community teaching my culture to myself who is has the enthusiasm to go with me?.
I remember my grandma black sheet with a red stripe at the middle of it,,,, my grandpa's was white with a red line also.
RIP my heroes
I really miss it....... can't wait to go home and take part🥳🥳👏👏
Thank you very much. It's nice to see these dances. I have been trying to find the dances for youth like the ones we used to see on tv in the 60s and 70s where the young men used to jump a lot, but I haven't found any😢. I just wish it was a little brighter cos I have really struggled to see it. Thank you❤
... reminds me of my grandpa,
He was a celeb 😂
It's a shame i don't even know how to dance to my traditional songs...some communities do their dances up to today,before the inrtoduction of religion it was all we had and we were good.so how is it forbidden 😢😢
Thank you for the video,but your voice is not clear can you do something about it?
Thanks much of what is needed is the dance not my commentary. But next time will address that
