The Yonna Dance

The Yonna dance is a cultural manifestation of the Wayúu indigenous people in the Colombian-Venezuelan border area on the La Guajira peninsula. To the rhythm of the drum, the Wayúu tribes dance for the preservation of their roots in the Yonna dance. This ancestral manifestation is an icon of the cultural richness of the native peoples that represents the search for balance between man and Pachamama (The Earth).
