There is no twerking there. Twerking is a rude, coarse and crude dance coming from the US. It is no skills to it, no redeeming features. This is a traditional dance characterised by careful and specific movement, sorry
Huh? What Sotho dances Lebo? I can tell you that if listen carefully to what was being said, the language is an evolution of the Sotho language. If you want to know the history, let me know.
@dimbwemazala8978 The very first dance where they are on all fours(like a worm), it's a Basotho dance, the announcer immediately said "Basadibagolo....", those "tutus" that they are wearing, Basotho dancers wear them in white mainly. I will rewatch and tell you what else. All I know is a year ago we went to Livingstone and met BaLozi, some Ngoni people, others who were speaking Nyanja, and some Tonga people and we had meaningful discussions.
@@lebo5281 I am a Tonga, who was born in Western Province, and lived there the first 9 years of my life. I therefore speak siLozi as a primary language. Also, recently it has come to my knowledge that I could be 1/4 Lozi... As you can imagine, I am familiar with most of the Lozi traditional dances, and so to me, I thought that they were all of Lunda heritage, since the Luyi, whom the the Kololo (the Sotho of the Bafokeng ba ha patsa clan) under Sebitwane, conquered, were from the culturally powerful Lunda Empire of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. However, after I read your comments yesterday, I searched TH-cam, and indeed there Sotho women doing the dance where they are on their 4 dancing in the manner you describe. If the two are the same, and they seem to be, the dance is clearly of Sotho origin. The Sotho influenced the Lozi, the whole Lozi language is basically mispronounced siSotho, though to be fair after 159 years since the Kololo men were overthrown by Sipopa and his Luyi men, the language has evolved and settled, and become a language in its own right, just like Venda, siTswana, siPedi etc, all of which are clearly derived from siStotho Lebo let me ask you this question, I came across the beautiful young Sotho woman called Sibongile Marokana, who owns a youth football team in the the Northwestern Province, and in an interview she did, she spoke a form of siSotho which by far the closest I have ever heard, to the Lozi language: what version of Sotho does she speak? As for the Tonga, they are the oldest Zambians. The archeological record goes back as far as the 10th century, though it might be even since the 4th century BC. They are the one who living on both sides of the Zambezi river first interacted with the Portuguese, and told the them that the name of the river was Kasambambezi. Being unable to pronounced all those syllables, the Portuguese labelled the name of the river Sambesi, then later on Zambesi, and finally the Zambezi we know today. The Tonga were and peaceful farmers, and cattle keepers. The Tonga lived in independent homesteads, without chiefs. For this reason, they were susceptible to raids from the other ethnic groups surrounding them. The Ngoni raided from the East, the Bemba from the north, the Lozi/ Kololo from the west and the Ndebele from the south, all to steal women and cattle. As you know, the Ngoni (Ng'uni), Ndebele and Kololo all left South Africa to escape the Defecane.... at more or less the same time...
