fabianfred Posted October 31, 2011 Author Share Posted October 31, 2011 (edited) ..how about Akha girls dancing traditional Akha steps in traditional Akha costumes. this one is real Akha girls at a Thai temple festival, but I do not know if their dance is traditional Akha or not. The village community has Akha people and Thai and Shan living there but it is not a strictly Akha village. There are many dance groups here in the North who like to dance fast to the beat of drums and have made up costumes 'loosely based' upon various hill-tribe styles. this one is an example... but it is difficult to find the real thing now.

When you say Thai kids, do you mean Tai Yai (Shan) of children from Thailand..a bit confusing what you wrote!
