The unfinished version of Clog America's music video--ignore all the weirdness at the end! We'll finish the rest in a couple weeks at International Days when Clog America comes together again! (Created by Jenny G.)
We have the unique and enjoyable privilege of traveling the world to perform and entertain. We represent the United States, and teach about our heritage and culture through song and dance. We are also, in turn, educated and entertained through song and dance by the representatives from other countries. While attending these festivals can be a lot of fun, we go home having learned so much more than a textbook or newspaper could have ever taught us. We learn about our host countries, host families, and the cultures of the other countries represented in dance.
This little video of a Georgian dance shares a lot about their history. Without knowing anything else about their culture, you can see how the strength and power of the men was valued and how the women prized the strong warriors.
Forgive the quality of this video. It was only taken on my little handheld camera, and not by professionals. Nor was it edited. It's just a small taste of the show to share with our families back home! Enjoy!
