What is Kachashi Dance?

During Okinawa festivals, or an Okinawa wedding and all other places you might see Kachashi dance.
Kachashi dance is danced when the people of Okinawa gather together to play sanshin and sing old folk songs (and drink awamori!). During a party or a festive event, people will get up and dance. They wave their arms back and forth and step up and down to the rhythm. At a festival, people dance to the sanshin and taiko drum.

Let's take a look at real Okinawa Kachashi Dance.
