    So interesting!!! I’m Puerto Rican and Haitian and both my grand mothers are Santeria and sance, but my mother tried hard to keep that away from me as a child . It was t til my 30’s I began to get into IFA and sance. I’ve been a dance for years and as a teenager and in my 20’s I’d be in the clubs in nyc dancing to house music every weekend like it was church or a tambourd I was addicted to dancing and after watching this it’s funny cause without knowing I subconsciously or maybe my ancestors made me similar and my version of these steps almost exactly in this order . I feel that speaks to my ancestors and my love and spiritual
    Connection to the drum and music ❤️💪🏾🇵🇷

    She is right on point, i don't know why men feel like women have to be working, thats not important for a man thats into his masculine energy, man pride themselves in providing for those they love and who take care of them. Kay Good luck, there are lot of men who will appreciate you and your availability. Good luck boo.

      @Peter Connell Being Puerto Rican is about ethnicity and when they add "afro" is about race; a puerto rican who's black. Other Puerto Rican are white, indigenous, but mostly biracial.
