[FransecCambo]

Wow... !!! That is so cool...

[lola193034]

[batourey]

"Ashley live" - now that is an understatement - she was more than live! She was present.

I'm sorry but I have to say that she is good, but by far not the best. Peace.

[Rastachambaby]

I watched the video better again and got to the conclusion that the drummer is not good. It is also not one of her best performances.

[hummingbird5]

Anyone is welcome to say anything they like about the dancing, (LOL!) but the drummer? Non! Magatte Sow is so incredibly talented, he is destined to be a huge star one day. Look for some other videos of Magatte playing tama / sabar / djembe and dancing here on YouTube. He has a very special, Unique Gift and Inchallah, the world will reward him well one day for his talents. Blessings, my sister!

[Rastachambaby]

No problem, Ashley explained me that it was improvised. That moment was very casual, for her as well as the group. That's why the video should not be seen in terms of performance, but of chilling and creation.

[keyuh09beyuh]

What? The best? Its some six year-olds in Flint that can take her.

[beeamery]

good job!

[LauraD45]

Ashley has to be one of the best sabar dancers this side of Senegal! She knows what she's doing! Rock on Ashley.

[neopetchic225]

I can understand you saying positive things about her performance, but lets not get crazy. You must not have seen many sabar dancers outside of Senegal if you think she is one of the best. I'm afraid Ashley, in my opinion does not make the top 500. NOT ENOUGH PASSION AND SOUL IN HER DANCE!!

[LauraD45]

I be to differ. I have seen many sabar dancers outside of Senegal, I study sabar and I believe she is one of the best in my opinion. You have yours I have mine. Peace.

[aoscruggs49]

I have to agree with neopetchic. We've got dancers in Ohio who have much better technique and passion.

[marolipo]

you are obviously not Gambian or Senegalese.

[kikibaker101]

No she isn't. Them girls that come to the dance conferences from Oakland is the best! This little white girl ain't doin a damn thang. I'm 14 and I can rip it better than her

[gmorselli]

Sorry but isn't that a TAMA ... the sabar is another instrument typically played in Senegal with one hand and one stick.

[hajara06]

She needs to put more soul into her dancing, but she gets sabar more than the African Americans who take the classes here.

[aoscruggs49]

I have to disagree with that one too! Come to Ohio. We can represent up here!

[arawak44]

I tend to agree with Batiyah. While technically proficient, her solo lacks the soul to make it anything more than that.

[daamu1]

wow, great !!!! wish i could danse like that

[maysenegal]

fau pa mettre de jupe kan on veut danser du sabar mais elle danse bien.

[Carlostchekin]

Not bad.. but I miss MORE SENEGALESE FEELING PLEASE! You have to sweat!

[ndiock]

cest un plaisir de voir cette video coooooool

[CarolynMadika]

She killed it around 1:13! Remember the muscles it requires to dance sabar...most of it is on ur tippy toes!

[pissene]

you rule

[Batiyah]

She ayyyait. needs a little more soul and rhythmmmm to it. good try though.

[Oyaade]

i don't know what you're talking about...she nailed the sabar...get it girl

[mike3k]

Awesome!

[Binzla]

buahhhhhhhhhhhhh coooooool very very very good :-)
