Wow, I can't see much traditional European"ballet" in this performance. I like it for what it is though. I studied ballet by the way and it originated in Italy, not France, so don't think "french King inspired after conquering Africa, then creates ballet" theory holds up.

[aloprest]

this is the history of ballet

The French conquered parts of Africa and the king/ leader became inspired and developed ballet.

@aloprest wow, silly me, I assumed I was the only one that cared about this information. I imagine that the Europeans also coopted the idea of Scouts having studied the African rites of passage programmes.

C'est ce genre de danse qu'on devrait promouvoir, pas la fameuse "sima ekoli". ça c'est l'une de vraies "danses africaines". Coup de châpeau!
