West African Dancing : West African Dance Arm & Foot Patterns

Notice that the movement of the wrist is as though you were shooting a basket into a net. The wrist drops slightly. So it's up, one, two, three. Up, one, two, three. And when you're finished with your hand movement, they're attached to your hip. So it's up, one, two, three, one, two, three, dee, dah, dah, dah, dee, dah, dah, dah, up, one, two, three, up, one, two, three.
