Last weekend, we decided to go to a showing of "Awa Odori" a traditional Japanese dance. Tokushima is famous for their Awa Odori Festival in August and they do shows every day throughout the year. So we figured we better go see what Tokushima is famous for!
They performed several danced - old traditional dance and a more modern dance. There was very little difference, except maybe the hats. It was fun to watch. They showed us the steps and we actually go to go down and dance with them. I wasn't very good, but they chose Jacob as one of their favorites and awarded him with a cool headband.
Here are some pictures from the event, and a small video I took of the dancing. Enjoy!
