- "Saturday is a lonely day." "If you have no one to go out with on a Saturday, you feel very lonely indeed", they explained. This version of the step dance which is performed with rubber or other padding on the ankles, is similar to the 'Isicatulo' boot dance of the Southern Zulu and Xhosa tribes. Step dance with clapping.
