Assiko

The choreographies of Assiko use several lop-sided walks, successive small close walks that the dancers make at different heights, standing up or crouching, which makes you feel they float on the stage.

There are also demonstrations of sense of balance, contortions and physical strength calling to the exhilalaration of dance or trance.

The band is usually based on a singer accompanied with a guitar, and a percussionist playing the pulsating rhythm of Assiko with metal knives and forks on an empty bottle.
