african dance teacher- lucy gomez

[nellie2581]

@xMISSxCHRISTINAx Sorry I won't stop straightening my hair, it is easier to comb and maintain. We don't have to all be the same.

[nellie2581]

Nice!

[1linjul]

what are the name for both songs ?

[winnerhack]

the white girls dancing are israelis!

[shaahine]

I JUST LOVE THIS. Is this the only available video from her? I did some googling but couldn't find anything.

Also doesn't this dance have a specific name? I'm sure there are tons of Afro dances!

[Amono646]

beautiful! what country is this dance from?

[saffire78]

@Amono646

Its from either senegal or gambia because that how we dance it very similar to the samba dancing. also the surname is another give away!

[Re9ap9er9]

You bad, sista!

[Codeafo1]

I love how they were like "AN AFRICAN DANCE MASTER" and then her name was Lucy... Lol, no offence, but the name was a bit of a let down. xD

[bstokeling91]

@Codeafo1 lol last name gomez. idt i would have noticed how wierd that is, but thats kinda funny.

[spicy4ursweetz]

this was beautiful dont mind the weak minded ignore them dont ever stoop low this is beautiful i love it

[eutuxiaMJ]

[Immartien0811]

[SYLVIEBING]

[thebadarshah]

if u look behind then u see that she who washin cloths wearin only white pants,,and and her boobs r seen a little bit

[lolingahmar670]

Wow...I have no idea that African Dance consist on alot of thrashing...I sorry to say this but I am not empress with this video...the music is excellent but the dancer needs to tone down the kicking...it looks more like a mad woman on the loose.

[mandingoactors]

@lolingahmar670 that is because when the drum gets into you, you cant control yourself... think about if u see a diamond chain on the ground, u wont help but pick it up.... im african lol thats y i know this.... the warrior dances have to be harsh too but glad u like the music

[lolingahmar670]

@mandingoactors I'm sorry for being harsh with my opinion now I feel like such a fool for even posting a comment. thank you for your polite comment and next time I promise to watch where I spit my tongue...lol...it might just bite back.

[mandingoactors]

@lolingahmar670 lol ahaha its all good

[oodles12]

@mandingoactors exactly,well put. plus all black american dances originated from the wild african dances, thats why when you see black americans dance to songs with strong beats they get KRUNK

[mandingoactors]

@oodles12 Oh yes!!! snap your fingas lol

[nellie2581]

@oodles12 Exactly

[mun2742]

i want to be african be cause i love african women i got african blood listen to merengue and you will feel the beats

[Aruna66]

Can you come to NZ please!!!

[tash1319]

amazing!! i want to learn so bad!

[NikkiLoveEspana]

wooooow!!!

[papanzinga]

This person has been lying to the world... African dance teacher? What African dance? We Africans do not dance in one way, there are thousands of different ways in which we dance for one person to claim to know them... Do not let these people lie to you.

[mmidou2093]

@papanzinga I totally agree. I hate when people generalize anything from africa. There are different ethnic groups and in those ethnic groups exist tribes. Different tribes have different music, different dialects, different attire. I have never seen someone dance like that in my life but I am from Africa.

[fantequeen]

@papanzinga oh i luv ur statement u totally nailed it.

[vibrantkitty1]

@papanzinga yes it is traditional african dance....first of all the video introduced the dance from Gambia, West Africa .....were in Africa are you from? You can not make a broad statement. I have seen similar dances live ...just say I'm not aware of this dance.

[nellie2581]

@papanzinga Amen!

[implerazure]

That was cool! Thank you for sharing!

[damslam]

im out of breath just wacthing!!

[SexxiChica011]

i would be afraid that my boobs would pop out doin alla that

[Falisia11]

BLOODY HELL. WE AFRICANS ARE BEAUTIFUL IN EVERY WAY.. AFRICA IS IN MY HEART HONESTLY.. THOUGH I LEFT DUE TO THE SOMALI WAR 1991 .. I STILL LOVE ALL MY AFRICAN PEOPLE TO DEATH.. WE THE BEST IN THE WORLD.. FROM WEST, EAST, NORTH TO SOUTH.. AFRICA IS ONE & UNIQUE!! MWAAH

[etanielyehuda]

@Falisia11 Very agreed! I hear that the average Somali woman CAN SIT DOWN most of the girls walking the runways in Paris, London, Milan, and New York! I've heard that from several people.

[Falisia11]

@etanielyehuda HUH, do u mean like the somali women can sit down on the runaway while the other gurls r doing their thng or u mean the somali Wmn just dont bother to be a model? i didnt get u on that mate.. and i really dnt knw whoever u heard from that but i am somali woman and i assure u , i am always on my feet with study and work but aint a model. I am only 57cm.. too short =(

[etanielyehuda]

@Falisia11 I was using some slang. Translation: I hear that the tall woman of Somalia can effortlessly model better than the average girl working in the modeling industry. Also, the natural grace of Somali women and their beauty. That is what I meant. Thanks for replying for clarity.  Cheers!

[Falisia11]

@etanielyehuda ahh i got u now, thnks for explaining.. and u r defintely rite bout it

[Islammormonfalse]

THENKS

[KMELIZ21]

@xMISSxCHRISTINAx are you really white? I've never known for any white person to admit the ancient egyptians as being black...now that peace sis or bro..if you are white and are admiting to his fact!! Peace & Love..

[hinata4478]

its so bizarre

[Theblackbarbie698]

proud to know that im african and my culture is really beautiful:D

[TheKatt16]

i know someone whos white and can dance like all of those people, so stop hating and saying white poeple can't dance!! every culture is beautiful in its own way, and that first woman is amazing :D

[nellie2581]

@TheKatt16  I cannot dance like that yet and I'm of African origin. One day I will be able to do so

[TayzzerCreationS]

love it

[Graftin2006]

racism on both sides going on here is not cool.

Lucy Gomez is understanding enough to teach white people how to do african dance. We are all one.

Both races stop hating.

If it were up to me, i'd wipe you all off the map so the rest of us can live in peace.

[yidi]

@Graftin2006 let Black people be mad. There is still resentment between people of both races. Many of us are just getting to learn about our heritage and traditions. 500+ years of tearing us from our culture may take another 500+ years to get back. No other race has been put through the total annihilation of their culture, stripped from their homeland, family, everything they held dear and thrown into a foreign land, watched countless kinsmen die during the journey there.

[nellie2581]

@Graftin2006 The Power of One!

[Hancy18]

the beginning vocals sound kinda like salsa

[Evangeline4love]

missxchristina, your going to burn in Hell. accept Jesus Christ or you will burn in Hell with your racsism.

[ahl2x13]

LOL! at 0:31!

[SexxiChica011]

@ahl2x13 LOL I just noticed that hahahahahahahaha she messed up big time haaaa

[mocosthebomb]

[galia555]

Muy lindo !!! Los invito a que busquen la esquina del carmen pinta canela de maribel ballumbrosio """" hermosa danza afro peruana ok espero les guste

[mischwa1]

I saw Lucy in The Gambia at the Kololi Resort and got to dance with her company. She is an excellent dancer and I was so happy that I got to see Futala perform. If you can take her class, you will be taught by one of the best performers in Africa. And mind you, everyone cannot teach, but she CAN!! Keep up the beautiful work.

Mischwa

[Annonymus]

the white girl ont hte right did the best at 0:30!!

[kikibaker101]

Lol that was so funny but her sabar at the end was a hot ass mess lol. And just so everyone who doesn't know knows, there's a whole lot more to west African dance than all that popping and stuff she was doing.

[33Kellymc]

Wonderful! All natural!!

[MsParkers123]

Great-thanks for sharing that with us

[damarmacon]

dude no body could hang with that woman, she has definately mastered body movement...I prefer to say Black "culture" though just because Africa has been so divided in its culture because we are so spread out now. You will notice that some things remain in subtle body motions though throughout the world from ancient dances... Man that lady has got for sure!

[Superponylover]

amazing. i was always interested in african dance and african culture.

[onamemmet]

white termites can't leave nothing alone; it's in their nature.

[saveplanetpluto]

there are black dancers doing ballet, contemporary, Arab oriental dance, so, what's your problem?

[cutie4037]

lmao heck yeh

[Proton1]

[MarkandSherryShow]

This is so good

[zaotechestvo2010]

she's pretty!

[jomokariuki]

you didn't answer any of my questions.. so far between us, it is you who has proven himself to be a complete fool. was that your intention? look up the word ignorant in the dictionary and ask yourself whether the word applies to you. this is important because RACISM is caused largely by 2 things. Ignorance and Fear. Your own insecurities lead you to act superior and put my race down cause in reality you feel inferior. You are scared of us because you're ignorant to us. Do you enjoy being a fool?

[jomokariuki]

Yaaaawn.. In this world there are smart people and there are dumb people, guess which category you fall under.. don't you ever get tired of sounding like an idiot?? when you write all this dumb shit, don't you think to yourself, wow this really is some dumb shit?? Do you enjoy being a fool?? Do you like being an ignorant buffoon with nothing intelligent to say?? Did your mother raise you to be an idiot, or did you manage that all by yourself?? Why do dumb people always flaunt their stupidity??

[DaveNorwoods]

i love it . go girls what a vibe

[deethecat5]

Africans are far politer than Afro-Americans. There really is a difference.

[kouayep0]

agree

[taherera]

no difference sir, we are the same in God's eyes, just different environment and socialization. That's what happens when a people are stolen from their roots and force to adapt to another man's way of doing things.

[nellie2581]

@deethecat5 Yes, that is why I love them. I am of African origin on my father's side and of Caribbean origin on my mother's side. I'm from Brussels, Belgium. I live in NY.

[blackirishchic]

african dance is sexy

[willowlow]

she has really long arms

[Floralin]

damn she's good .

[pafabio]

My ex could dance like that

[Marwarluigi]

No, she could dance worse than that XD

[Pafabio27]

[Marwarluigi]

I wonder how much junk there is

[pafabio]

[yoyodog12345]

My president is black........We win..you loose...

[Ainara82]

this girl can't be real!!!you are the flow in person!!

[Aspaba2012]

Actually it's a FACT that Europeans brought disease to Africa and America.Also LOTS of people smuggled drugs into America.Latinos,Blacks,Whites,­etc.Actually your so dumb that you don't realize that YOUR a nigger.The true meaning of "nigger" is someone that is ignorant...which is you.ANYONE can be a nigger.Your such a dumb ass.Sitting there throwing insults and not knowing what the hell your talking about.

[Aspaba2012]

Who are the ones that raped hundreds or even thousands of Native American and African women?Oh yeah....EUROPEANS.And your saying that black men rape white women because black girls are ugly?LOL that's the stupidest thing i've ever heard.People don't always rape others because they are attracted to them,it's more about having power over the victim.Your so ignorant,go educate yourself.

[Dianneoh05]

haaa! and that's why you idiots take our music, dance to our music, take our culture, colonized our continent and claimed it as yours because you didn't like your own. ;) love you!

[honeybun33]

wats up wit the last lady?? boy can she go!! watever she was zoned out on i need a sum too !

[famsin]

Talunge7 stop being a fool and lets try and stop racism..there is no use of it cos,,,u will never improve!

[msjayohwhy]

lol and u got nerve callin sumbody big mouth when its the while girls going out gettin booty fat injected in their lips and tanning to b like us! (hater u know u wunna b black)

[Codeafo1]

@msjayohwhy I don't want to be black.... I like being who I am... Individuality is a great thing...

[msjayohwhy]

blah blah blah! and if he does say it then he doesnt say it to his face!! he is a ounk like you! you would never come out your face like this if you were face to face.

[msjayohwhy]

lol your a loser!!! who even says nigger anymore? i mean really upgrade your insults!. and by the way Jesus loves you my friend. (i am black)

[coldwarchic]

wow that was really good now thats some dancing.and it looks like there having a good time :}

[sweetpeaomine]

What I don't get is why people actively seek out videos like this only to say stuff like what is posted below? I took an African dance clas, and it was amazing. We had drumers that came from A long line of drumers in their family. the music, like stories are passed down. The connection that you feel when they play for you is unreal. This form of dance will kick your ass if you go into it unsuspecting.

[corkygutta]

u cant stand them because there ugly lol how ignorant do you sound ? seriously

[kurichicken]

Daaaamn git it guurl :-D

[icacaonline]

Keep up the good work. We are putting together a directory of Ghanaian arts groups aorund the world. Please send us your group's details.

[maryjanefour]

this is freaking awesome! love african moves it involves lots of energy ... and for some of the "white" ignorantsif u r not gonna comment about the african dance please reserve your comments

[1983cy]

AmAzInG....respect to this amzing dance moves.....

african dance is one of the most pleasant dance i danced to...

[unibunnie]

if you are calling this dance primitive.. then why do alot of rich white girls dance like sluts.. every culture does their own dance. this dance has some erotic stuff in it.. then what about bellydancing.. and tahitian dancing stop calling your fellow human primitive we belong to one race .. the Human race. and btw reza you are being racist and trying hard to be a KKK white man ..

[nellie2581]

@unibunnie Amen!

[floppybollox3]

@RezaDemocrat!!!??? What a ridiculous comment. Why must you idiots make the racist comment in the first place. Why must you be so ignorant and unintelligent? And if you had the brain to look carefully you would see that there's nothing racist in my comment. It's basically saying people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Also giving a clear insight into your own insecurities. Come back with somehting intelligent or end this right know.

[floppybollox3]

Yeah your Iranian!!! So given what fellow Nazis think about you makes you one fucked up, insecure wannabe arsehole!

[Empress1Unique]

Black People are just the same as African people. We've just been influenced by European culture. We went from Nature to Technology. Africans play djembe's, producers make beats from through the computer. The sound of the Drum never goes away. Somethings will never change.

[nellie2581]

@Empress1Unique I agree because I'm Europeanized. Being born and raised in Europe and America of African and Caribbean origin.

[twalsh29]

Wow! THis is very artfull and even erotic. Even white boys gotta shout!

[DanceMassTV]

i love this.. would love to of been there

[Trinasosweet]

Now that was beautiful! African Dancing and Latin Dancing is awesome!

[berries22]

beautiful dancing...damn, i wanna learn African dance

[champagnevoluptuous]

I can definitely see the influence on American hip hop dance. This is awsome!

[nellie2581]

@champagnevoluptuous Me too! And reggae, reggaeton, Merengue, Salsa, and all the Latin American and Caribbean Music!

[sguardian870]

now u know why blacks can dance today our forefathers always had rhythm lol

[ByzantiumCA]

I don't think you can dance like this from forefathers ... I think it takes a lot of practice and hard work! But all popular dances in USA like Hip Hop and Jazz came from African American culture, that is true.

[cute82rt]

In my case your wrong. Of coarse every black woman or man can't dance! But we do have it in us! Alot of the dances we do today are influenced by this style of dance. Now if we wanted to do a routine then yes we would have to learn the routine but trust that we could freestyles in this type of dance with no prior training!

[nellie2581]

@sguardian870  That's right!

[DanniDotNet]

DAYUM.

She's killing.

[Blauqkween]

Now that is how you do it.

[bababuba]

[aperrish202703]

Beautiful-she's flawless, moves like water

[potter079]

[LaCiguapaRebelde]

Yeah, I guess for people who still haven't realized that there are other cultures and ways in the world besides the homogeneous western ones think this is "cool", and funny, and amusing, and exotic, and "guess" this is dance...

[doctoradancer]

who is "they?" and where do you live? no one does sabar any more?

[LaCiguapaRebelde]

What is wrong with this? This is an expression of a peoples. Who is "us"??? Who is "no one"??? What are they doing wrong??????????

[henrrudrumer]
