Am bored… here’s my culture dance

What is saar? This is a cultural dance done in Djibouti and am pretty sure that the northern part of Somalia (sland) does it aswell. I think it’s called Harimadee but I can be wrong.

Harimadee is only performed by men and is more of a war dance traditionally practiced in the Somali Galbeed and Djibouti by Gadabuursi and Cissa. I didn't watch it to confirm just thought it would be interesting to provide some context.
Np problem! I love saylici aswell it’s soo regal, elegant, and unique. ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you. I like it as well. I learned it years ago.

What’s the first dance called? Pretty sure it’s not Saylici. I love that Harimadee dance, one of our best ones.

Is Waamo only a small region of Lower Juba or the whole of NFD and Jubaland? @Abaq
Classically, everything between the Jubba and Tana was known as Waamo. Waasow, Joorre, Dhesheeg Waamo, Faafi, Shawaay etc were regions within Waamo. Some people nowadays restrict Waamo to just Lower Jubba which is nonsense

Even Degodia, Ajuraan and Garre land between Ganaane & Ganaane Maro?

Everything between the Jubba and Tana, and the Indian ocean and the Dawa river is called Waamo clasically. Bounded by water on nearly every side except the stretch between where the Tana turns towards Mt Kenya and Moyale. Degodia came later, Ajuran and Garre were Boran sheegads
