The Maasai are semi-nomadic people located
in Kenya and northern Tanzania. They own large herds of
cattle, sheep and goats which they follow around seasonally in search of new
grazing grounds and water sources.
The Maasai are famous for the “jumping dance” which is
called adamu. It is performed when a circle is formed by the warriors, and one
or two at a time will enter the center to begin jumping while maintaining a
narrow posture, never letting their heels touch the ground.
