I saw movies of aboriginal dancing on

Can anyone tell me where will I need to go to see those live?

Cheers.

Sorry, I don't click on just any link and I don't recognise the country code. Is there a version on YouTube? Since you haven't received any replies I thought I'd bump this up, and I'm also wondering, do you mean aboriginal as in indigenous or Aboriginal, possibly Australian? Does the link not give any info?

Usually an aboriginal group is the indigenous group of a particular area in any country. These days mostly it refers to the indigenious communities throughout, Africa, australia, Mexico, North america/Canada, etc. All of these communities dance. So do most peoples of the world.

For adventire and outdoors you could look at

www.wilderness-challenge.com.au

This is in australia and has plenty of outdoor adventure safaris, though not necessarily any aboriginal dancing. Sometimes you will see a showe put on especially for tourists, but frankly it is not the real thing.

You could also look up - tiwi island tours - which are run from out of Darwin, Australia..

The OP hasn't been back since the query was posted so I'm thinking maybe I was right not to click on the link.
