I must have seen this video a hundred times and it is "the hands down best tassa dance" video I have ever seen. This is an art and it is a learned cultural skill from our dynamic Afro-Indian history. The drums and dance is unique only to us...I love this and thanks so much for reminding me of who I am and where I came from...This defines us...well the happy side!!
I Mulligan I was thinking the same thing and then I read your comment. I've watched it about a hundred times as well. The guy in the gray pants is on point.
If you’ve ever seen the true flamenco as done by the real gypsies from Granada Spain, and know the history about the migration of the original gypsies from India, you’ll realize that the dancing displayed here is rooted in a far greater and glorified history than just simply Trinidadian culture. There is a richness and beauty in the dancing that these dancers can’t quite capture but it will pass.
I enjoyed this wedding party video. I've not been to a Hosay festival in many years and that I truly miss it especially that soul-stirring tassa music…(somebody invite mih to a wedding nuh!) Never thought I'd see fellahs out-wine ladies bad so! Thanks for posting.

Well big up di Trinidad dem. Ah mad ting dis!!! Did y'all see the red shirt sliding his sexy self on in doing the butterfly at 2:50? That was hilarious. Indians an pakistanis are great winers.
@chelsea1808 It's more fun to be a Trini... ...and I'm a yankee. Whoever dey wives is, dey lucky in truth. It's hard to believe there are people who really don't like this. Maybe they have a problem distinguishing the difference between dislike and envy.
