Zulu Nyala has a small "village" at the Heritage Lodge that if you want you can go visit. We choose not to as when we arrived at the preserve and dropped one couple off there, we could see that it wasn't a true village, but more like a "museum". The people that are working there, did however, come over to the Game Lodge (where we stayed) and danced the traditional Zulu dances during dinner on Day 5. You might remember me referencing the traditional dance earlier as the restaurant staff had done an impromptu performance for us the night of the birthday party.
The girls played the drums while the guys danced......
......and vice verse.
I don't know how "traditional" the costumes were, but the dance was.
This guys was such an athlete. He would go into a back flip basically from a sitting position. I wasn't quick enough to get a shot of it. :(
I think that would have been amazing. I've always loved African Dance and would love to be able to actually be in Africa with natives watching them dance. Very cool!
