Each young Maasai warrior jump as high as he can while the others stand in a circle and sing. The voices of the men get higher as the jumping increases. In the Masai language, this dancing competition is called the “adumu”.
Masai dances are very structured and are performed for certain occasions.
There are dances for celebration when a lion is killed by the warriors, a dance for the blessing of cattle, and dances performed at wedding. Most of the Masai dances are pretty simple, and consist of a lot of bending, but with the feet staying still on the ground.
