  • 2 or more singers, usually about 6-10, in the middle, water drum and horn rattles
  • Occasionally the women on the outside of the dancers (those sitting on the sides) will join the men in singing at a high pitch
  • The women go and ask a man to dance
  • The woman is on the outside, the man on the inside of the circle
  • They hold hands with arms crossed (left hand holds left hand, right hand holds right hand)
  • Each takes two steps forward and one step backwards in unison
  • At the change in beat of the song, the dancers turn in a circle, keeping beat and the dance step in place
