Zulu Dancers in Inverness

Inverness BID and Eastgate Shopping centre hosted, in June, a group of African Zulu Dancers. The Zulu dance is a sign of happiness it's done when there is a Zulu wedding, inauguration of a king, when a child is born, when a war is won, the testing of virgins. The dance is taught to young girls and boys while in an early age.

The Zulu people love to sing and tell stories to children known as "izinganekwane" this stories are normally about animals. The Young Zulu Warriors are a young, vibrant and soulful group of Zulu gospel singers and dancers from South Africa. The group of boys and girls was formed at God's Golden Acre, KwaZulu Natal in 2000 and has since dazzled audiences internationally with their foot-stomping, pulsating and meaningful performances which portray aspects of their lives and homeland.
