Dance / Panama

August 25th, 2011 · 2 Comments · Tags: ·

It was a great summer! Among other adventures, we spent three weeks in Panama — and finally saw traditional dances on our last night in Panama City. It reminded me a bit of the dances we saw in Merida, in the Yucatan, several years ago — but quite unique as well, especially in the way the men hold themselves & their arms.

Anyway, I wanted to share. Not the best videos but perhaps you can get an idea of the dancing…

Las Tinajas Restaurant in Panama City does a great job of staging traditional Panamanian dances.
