African dance

One of the best things in my life is the african dance. Dearly to recommend is my wonderful teacher Petra Siekermann.
On this gif - she truly dances very fast  :) -  she is having a performance with her group Yarabi Musik.
Thank you for showing me this part of the world, Petra.
And here´s some more music to dance to.
