Thank you for you blog!
About Tajona ...Hi Geordie<br /><br />Thank you for you blog!<br /><br />About Tajona (or Tahona) I would say what I think: the ancient tajona (the late rumba form) has only few things in common with the Oriente Tahona.<br />You may find a good example of Oriente tahona in a website on Cutumba with short videos (I forgot the name of the website).<br />The Oriente tahona is danced around a mast - kind of flagpole - with many dancers, each one holding a lond ribbon. The ribbons are tied along the mast and they first "undo" the lacing with a slow rythm, then they re-do the lacing very fast. This tradition comes from Europe, for it can be found in various european countries. I'm afraid it's got nothing in common with rumba, which was born in Occidente.<br />Patpatriciohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03995495607030894630noreply@blogger.com
