Blue Mountain Lake Community Dance to Tiriba
Here is our video of Tiriba, the community dance - the last dance of the night where we get the audience involved. Notice the high energy and booty shaking going on! The song starts out with our Soma Beats dancers doing their solos, followed by the community being invited to dance along.
This performance was at the Adirondack Arts Center in Blue Mountain Lake, New York in July 2010.
