Answer:

Nagla is a form of dance famous in Ghana specially among Kassena and the Frafra.

Step-by-step explanation:

Nagla is a famous dance form in Northern Ghana specially among Kassena and the Frafra tribe. This dance form was initially perfomed at funerals but now it has taken modern shape and is performed at social gatherings or occasions or festivals as well, marriage being an exception.

This form of dance is performed by thumping feet on the ground in rhythmic manner on thhe drum beats. The dance posture of this dance is that the dancer bends his upper body forward, tucking his or her hands either behind the back or in front of him/her, the knees are bent a bit with the heels off the ground. In a way it forms a zig-zag shape by the human body.
