  • Description: The Embrukoi dance is characterised by high leaps into the air with a rigid body. The dancers will leap as much as 18 inches clear into the air, at the same time giving a characteristic lift to the chin. The song praises his friends who kill lions. He sings also that he himself found a lion beside the path and killed it with his spear, a not uncommon feat among these people. He also sings of a faction fight in his district between neighbouring villages. This is a well known song in the Arusha district. The use of a thin falsetto by the solo singer quite belies the look of the man, which is far from being effeminate and typical of the young Masai moran. Embrukoi dance song for men and women.
