DANCES In the dance rite the young girls dance around the hut with sensuous movements. Inside the hut the warriors sit with their sticks in a concentrated attitude. They do not look at the women outside. From time to time a young girl enters the hut, chooses the male of her preference and rides him with her thigh on his shoulder and her whole body vibrates for a few seconds.The male then comes out of the hut and with spastic movements hurls out screams of power. As the rite goes on the males reach an ecstatic trance through which they connect to invisible forces that give them the strength and determination for future endeavors. The young girls have established their preferences. However the males will still need to prove their courage in future fights.
