Description on the dance
Agbadza is an Ewe music and dance that evolved from the times of war into a very popular recreational dance. It came from a very old war dance called Atrikpui and usually performed by the Ewe people of the Volta Region of Ghana, particularly during the Hogbetsotso Festival, a celebration by the Anlo Ewe tribe

The dance has five movements in performing it, 1. Banyinyi which is a short introductory in prayer to the gods and ancestors, 2. Vutsortsor which is the main dance, 3. Adzo- which is less energetic and only the master is made to drum along with Gankogui and Axatse.

what was the social impact
what was the social impact
The soical impact that i think the dance scatters is being proud and including.
I feel like it has a impact of including because during the dance its not just a group of people doing it anyone is able to join
I feel like it also has a impact of being proud because before this dance, ghana was getting invaded, so since they kept ghana their are proud to dance as a sign of loyalty
