Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about the differences between the cultures I've lived in and the other day I was browsing through Youtube and stumbled across this. It’s a clip of a girl (most likely Honduran) dancing La Punta. Yes, I am Honduran and yes I grew up dancing it. Looking at it from the American point of view it is hard for some to believe that this is a dance we teach our children and one that people dance in all different kinds of occasions form weddings to birthday parties. I remember I spent my 6th, and later my 9th grades in Virginia and if there was any sort of provocative or contact dancing you were kicked out immediately. In Honduras and Trinidad for instance, there is no other way to dance. Dancing is about passion and letting loose and having as much fun as you can until you can't any more. Just thought I'd share a small part of MY culture with you guys.
