I'm from the ivory coast so i'll explain. The dance is named after Djela Lou Zaouli (Djela daughter of Zaouli), the daughter of a chief. She was rumored to be the most beautiful woman of her time. That's why the masks are painted with colorful and feminine traits, as well as gazelle's horns. The gazelle is a symbol of feminine beauty. They created the mask to pay homage to her beauty.
1. So, this "Zaouli" was a chief, and "Zaouli" was his daughter. So, could we call "Zaouli" a "princess"? 2. Now, that is a _man_ doing that dance celebrating her beauty. Is he not a little embarrassed to be playing the part of a girl? 😒
@@TheNoiseySpectator her full name is Djela (beautiful) Lou (daughter of) Zaouli. And no, this is not embarrassing since the creators of the danse themselves were probably men. Also, in Africa, women do not dance under masks. It's reserved for men.
@@TheNoiseySpectator and about whetherto call her a princess, in western ivorian tribes, we don't have monarchies but democracy. The chief is elected among the respected members of the clan so since he isn't technically a king, I wouldn't call his daughter a princess.
I'm Colombian and on our Atlantic and Caribbean coasts we also do these traditional African dances. We call it Champeta. I love you Africa. Thank you for your gifts!
This authentic art of the highest level with no electronic frills, just raw talent of artists in perfect harmony with their rhythms, produced by homemade percussion instruments. What an experience witnessing this spectacle! You can see how African rhythms have spread all over the Caribbean, Central and South America, not to mention North America.

Wow! I’ve been binge watching these videos since yesterday. He is actually conducting the drummers and other musicians. His foot work and rhythm is one of the best so far. Wish I was there to witness this first hand.
I have been watching many traditional/cultural dances from all over the world.. The Zaouli dance is my all time favorite. From the story behind it, to the technique and the amazing costume. It's absolutely mesmerizing. I sure hope the young embrace their heritage and keep this dance alive for all future generations. ❤
I'm a white woman from the states (married to an African performer from Zimbabwe) & I can honestly, say after living with my husband for the best (8) months of my life with him in Zim, there is no place on the planet as magical as Africa...It was soooo unbelievable & the people soooo beyond kind, when I had to return to the states in 2016, I cried hysterically all the way back. Though we've been in the states for 6 years now, not a day has gone by, I don't dream of returning & finally we are going to try to return permanently. The cultures, the animals, the beauty is astounding there. God bless Africa.

Most African drums talk, you only need a shared cultural background to understand the language of the drums. This is what scholars call speech extension. The dancers actually or most likely are communicating somehow.
Somewhere on RUclips there's a video of a Zaouli festival in a big village, and sure enough the kids are following the dancers around when they're not performing and trying to duplicate the moves. I'm sure that's how it starts.
I think it's the other way around, and the drummers are keeping up with him. Reminds of the Bomba dance from Puerto Rico minus the outfit and the drums that are being used.

I wish I knew french so I could understand the documentary videos, they have such a hold on my attention and curiosity. I do have to say, this dancer is probably on my top 3 favorites...he’s incredibly skilled, but alluring as well...and I can’t lie about how handsome he is too😳. I wish I could see one of these dances in person.
zed zed his face is not visible, but he is a handsome person in general. His dedication and skill level, as well as the kind of character he takes on to perform is what I find attractive about him. He’s enigmatic so in a sense I guess I find him handsome as a whole..? It’s hard to articulate my words, I apologize if this doesn’t make much sense😅

To the left are the children. The drummers are mostly seated and the dancer has a big mask on his head. I personally don't think he's bigger than the rest, but I could be wrong.

I might be mistaken, but I believe this dancer's name is Loh Samuel and he also dances in a purple outfit with white and purple leggings. Whatever the case, and whoever either dancer is, he is the best I have seen at this kind of dance, in these videos. He can appear to be sliding/moon walking, in any direction he wants, with either or both feet, with the really high speed bouncing off the front of his feet. Simply amazing.
The mask wearer is usually a high ranking member of the secret society and he is believed to be channeling the power of the mask. He'd therefore need a sort of assistant to ensure his outfit is in place as he dances and also to remove any hazards that could disturb the dance.
This is The Ivory Coast, not Nigeria. But, don't worry; thanks to "TickTock" , *WE AMERICANS* will soon absorb this dancing, and everyone will think _we_ invented it while we spread it over the rest of the world! 🌎 Just ask the native people of New Zealand who _really_ invented bungee jumping!

Incredible to watch how much the musicians and the dancer are united on higher levels. They dont need to look at each other with their eyes yet the music and the dance are completely ONE. the dancer is very respectful shows ultimate intelligence of the higher forces! I am totaly K.O. by this video.
Generally these dances and rituals have religious connotations, it gives me the feeling of godly intervention into the human experience, being that the Sumerian race were one of the first people chosen by created.

Hey Niga boy , u are king of dance . No one can even think to dance like this
This is The Ivory Coast, not Nigeria.
But, don't worry; thanks to "TickTock" , *WE AMERICANS* will soon absorb this dancing, and everyone will think _we_ invented it while we spread it over the rest of the world! 🌎
Just ask the native people of New Zealand who _really_ invented bungee jumping!
A-hahahahaha! 😏🇺🇸
Greetings from Germany

It seems that this man's body staring at the magic done by his limbs. Rapid steps amazing. No stage, no orchestra, but real performance. 'Zaouli'of Ivory Coast interesting to watch every time

Пусть у них будет хорошо ,они наверное ничего не знают кроме этих танцев.Они не смотря ни на что очень веселые.Танцор очень пластичный ,высокий талантливый .

@@Alekssport2101 эта цивилизация много хорошего принесла, зато они счастливы или нет...
Почему от него в конце музыканты отвернулись ? Все , о верпулись
amazing video I am so happy to be able to see this! im mesmerized by the dancer and his way of being ONE with the music. Incredible to watch how much the musicians and the dancer are united on higher levels. They dont need to look at each other with their eyes yet the music and the dance are completely ONE. the dancer is very respectful shows ultimate intelligence of the higher forces! I am totaly K.O. by this video.
Generally these dances and rituals have religious connotations, it gives me the feeling of godly intervention into the human experience, being that the Sumerian race were one of the first people chosen by created.
I really enjoy looking at this Zauli traditional dances, ability and energy.
The athleticism is mind blowing.
