Kenbu, Ancient War Dance To Be Given at Festival
Over 800 years ago on one of the islands off the coast of Korea and Manchuria, an exotic, graceful dance called Kenbu began. It might be classified as a war dance because this poem and sword dance was a ritual before the clan or tribe went into battle.
The poem is a story of two kings and their fighting forces facing each other across a river. One tribe is starting to ford the stream.
"We are crossing the river . . .
in the dark of the night. . .
"We have been waiting 10 years
