You people have a unique music and dance. Please concentrate on the Asafo and all the Fantse community traditions so that you can project an authentic cultural representation. Love it.....
Correct me if I'm wrong but I would assume this dance looks like it use to be performed with a rifle or bayonet of some sort. Since the Akan embraced the rifle during the Atlantic slave trade.
