Our young ones abroad will never loose our culture. Nwa mkpi amaghi agba, owuba awuba mana nke amaka ri nne.

I suspect Igbos are ancient people who had direct connection with God at some point. Igbos do not understand the gold they have in their flute music. If you have your own country and welcome world leaders like this, it will be all over the global news and people will be asking who are these people. There is something special and spiritual about the flute music, sort of a connection to God. It's like the Igbo ancestors used it to invoke their Gods and ancestors. Once the the Gods and ancestors hear the flute, they come around and stay among you but you don't see them!
I just found out I have Igbo blood and it makes so much sense I wet to a Afro Caribbean party where the DJ blended t the sound of drums and other instruments and I did these moves without ever seeing this or learning it came from my soul I’m so grateful the ancestors were with me and for so long I wanted to move to Georgia and I’m seeing who to connect with when I finally get there this is dope❤ ❤
This is so beautiful. Proud to be a person who lived once in IGBO land
Igbo girls are beautiful, love from Ghana.
Thanks my love, yes we are
Proudly onye igbo biafran.. Watching from Capetown south Africa
Igbo's are wonderful people with beautiful culture, thank God Igbo. Go girls u doing us proud
Many indigenous cultures around the world have nearly died out or been completely destroyed in human history. But unlike all others, we have thrived.
I'm proud to be an igbo man, our culture will remain forever and ever
Amen
Forever ooo ...Amen
Are you guys Hebrew?
@@ElNegringoKreyolito What do you think?
Jesus Christ was probably an Igbo man 🌚
Why did God so blessed Igbo from Benin Republic
It's beautiful that you are teaching those children. Our culture won't die. ❤🖤💚☀️
Am an Indian worked at Baptist G HS,Agbor, Bendel state of Nigeria in the early eighties.Now in India.
I loved the Atilogwu dance. The rhythm ,movements and steps are fantastic. None else can claim it. I salute you African people for your talents and performances.
Bendel! Gosh you must be a certain vintage to know that 😂
They did a tremendous job!! Dance moves and flow of rhythm were all on point!
Umunna nke atogbuo onwe ya! Ezigbo nkwado asụsụ Igbo pụrụiche. Thank you for championing the beauty of Igbo culture. Ya dikwara unu nile mma. Chukwu gozie unu.
My culture my pride proudly Igbo 2021
THIS IS THE BEST ETILOGWU VERSION. THIS IS WHAT ETILOGWU SOUNDS AND LOOKS AND FEELS LIKE, ESPECIALLY BY THE GIRLS WHO DANCED EITH STYLE AND AMAZING ELEGANCE- WELL CHOREOGRAPHED AND BEAUTIFULLY PERFORMED; IT IS A MASTERPIECE AND PERFORMANCE PAR EXCELLENCE 💪✌️😊✅🫶❤️
This is great!!!!!! I remember taking part in atilegwu dance as a yongster in Naija.. So happy to see this today🙂❤.
I really love the way they are dancing this is so amazing ❤❤❤❤❤
THIS IS ATILOGWU AT ITS BEST💪 ESPECIALLY THE GIRLS 👧 WHO ARE SO GRACEFUL AND MAJESTIC 👍 I EARNED THE RIGHT TO SAY ALL THIS, BECAUSE I DANCED ATILOGWU MYSELF GROWING UP, IN FACT I DID PERFORM BEFORE HUNDREDS, IF NOT THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE, ONE OCCASION WAS DURING A CELEBRATION/COMMEMORATION OF NIGERIA’S INDEPENDENCE. THIS IS INDEED HONORABLE AND MEMORABLE.
Again, this is awesome 😂 These girls deserve a million dollars, or some kind of college/university scholarships wherever they are.
And they are all beautiful, too ❤️ They dance with such confidence and vigor and grace.
Today, I am a university graduate here in the UNITED STATES, but I used to be part of a Dance Group growing up in NIGERIA, that was heavily ATILOGWU, but was taught/coached by the MKPOKITI UMUNZE group in those days.
The girls were sharper than the guys, to be honest, but the guys did well, for the most part.
😭😭😭😭oh my God I am Igbo and I don’t have any slightest idea of our dance staying here in America has robbed me of my culture
You can still catch up by traveling home often
Go and join them
The flute in igbo music reminds me of the music of the aztecs from Mexico.
Flauta Latina de Peru y Bolivia 🇧🇴
Tell you what? This style burns lots of calories.
Don’t worry our Igbo diet is full of them so it’s win win
African maidens been burning calories with parallel diet and exercise for centuries.....
I think I see where the legwork comes from 😀. Love from Gh 🇬🇭
The creator of leg is Igbo 😂❤
The leg work is incredible.
This so emotional for me😍. Igbo amaka💋
Thank you to these beautiful and talented young ladies for keeping this wonderful culture alive, and thank you to the youtube channel who upload this video!
Love that, never forget your culture. One love Africa
This girl in 5:15 has captured my heart. I watched her over and over and over. She dances as if she was born with it. I don't know many people back home who can dance so well. The whole troop dances so wonderfully. I am proud of the dancers as well as those who put it together

Event hough you'll be overseas
The closing dance would come first all the same - very beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Just a tip of where African American rhyme of R&B came from...Igbos of Nigeria.
You need to see the authentic one danced by the natives.
You need to watch ,war dance, okworo ogbuo,Okosha, egwu ukwu, egwu amara , Ngelenge to mention a few.
Rhythm lives in southern Eastern and South, south Nigeria.
The R&B could actually stand for Republic of Biafra, Hahahaha.
I love your dance. The best. Well done 👏🏾👏🏾
Interesting to watch
Beautiful culture display
My child will dance this
Great dance, but not sure it would be considered Atilogwu though, which is a quite a specific type of fast and light footed dance/acrobatics. It's good they are trying though.
I swr dancing atilogwu in my secondary school days was a lot tasking..we would train all the time even on Saturdays and it would be the fastest it can be so if they ever reduce it you will dance efficiently but it was still fast..when we finished we would be breathing like goats on Christmas morning
They are even dancing on tiles...we danced on stones 😸😸....but I love their dance tho
Don't confuse it with KPOKITI, though.
I went to an all girls secondary school in Nigeria and our school cultural group danced it like this, although with many more routines. Many, many years ago.
@@angelicakweku5293 which school? cos you sound like we went to the same school
Exactly, this is not atilogwu at all.
Is this not beautiful,is this not our identity, why do we deny this and want to be some wannabe Jay Z or Diddy.. this right there is beautiful
Beautiful ndi nkem
