This is Mauritian Sega🩷🍵 It was created centuries ago by maroons and Africans who were taken and enslaved by the Dutch to Mauritius (an African Island that was largely uninhabited back then). It was created as a symbol of pain, resistance, happiness, and heritage It was performed by the enslaved in chains, which is why the feet rarely lift from the ground in the dance.

While the island is now primarily of Indian descent due to the influx of South Indians brought to Mauritius as indentured servants, Mauritian Sega is performed by all Mauritians.

It's a symbol of freedom, created by the Black people taken from Mozambique 🇲🇿 and Madagascar 🇲🇬
