Chisa Nyama Borrowdale Dance!

So while I was in Zimbabwe I had the pleasure of going to a chisa nyama (a braai/bbq) place called Redwood. I had a freaking blast! Essentially you order food (meat and sadza) and drink in an outdoorsy area. You also have a DJ  pumping the latest and hottest music so you are constantly entertained.

I captured video footage of this 17 year old kid doing a dance called the borrowdale. Excuse the graininess of the video, it was shot late at night with bad lighting. But I think you will still get the gist of his dancing abilities!

The dance is characterized by fancy footwork and galloping body movements resembling the movements made by a racing horse
Check out the video below!

  1. Travel and society polish one, but a rolling stone gathers no moss, and a little moss is a good thing on a man.
