Music

Mejorana:This music is singed by boys, this music is like a discussion (aplicados but with music).

Tamborito: This music is sing by a chorus of girls. Is mostly singed in carnivals.

I think music is important because they can express their feelings.

Dance

People from Panama dance in different ways but they are really interesting. I will like to know the dances because they are really difficult.

Dance moves

One dance move the girls do is to move their dress it like this .

Another is from the boys they tap really fast on the floor with a rhythm.

Tamborito dance

This dance use done with the Panamanian typical genre that is called Tamborito. The girls swing the edges of their dress wile the boys are swinging their hands.

El punto danceThis dance is done by a man and a woman that dance in circle and meet but do not touch each other and also tap their feet.

I think the dance is important like the music they express your feelings.

Conclusion

I think dance and music is important because you can learn about how the feel. Maybe you can learn as much as I learned.
