#DidYouKnow 🇭🇹 The traditional Haitian folklore dance known as Yanvalou, best known for its bent knees and rolling back and shoulder movement was originated in Benin, West Africa? The dance was brought to Haiti with the enslaved Africans and has been a common folkloric dance style in the country for generations. The dance is keenly similar to the well-known Jamaican dance, the “Gully Creep” coined by Jamaican artist, Elephant Man. Could the dance be a derivative of Haiti’s Yanvalou dance? #lun

Don't cry! Be inspired! During the Haitian Revolution, Haitians used dance as a powerful form of cultural expression, resistance, and spiritual practice. Dances like Yanvalou, Petro, and Rara were not just entertainment but also served as a way to connect with their African heritage, maintain morale, and even prepare for battle. #haitiantiktok #haitiantiktok🇭🇹 #haiti🇭🇹 #haitian #ayiti #ayisyentiktok #weallwegot #ilovemypeople | Goddess Mia
