Limbo (dance) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Limbo (dance)
Limbo is a traditional popular dance contest that originated on the island of Trinidad. The dance originated as an event that took place at wakes in Trinidad and Tobago, and was popularized by dance pioneer (Julia Edward ) (known as the First Lady of Limbo) and her company which appeared in several films, in particular ''Fire Down Below'' (1957), and toured widely in the Caribbean, Europe, North and South America, Asia and Africa in the 1960s and beyond. A film, ''Julia and Joyce'', was released in 2010 by Trinidadian/American dance researcher/choreographer Sonja Dumas which features the evolution of the Limbo and the contribution of Julia Edwards to the explosion of its popularity. ==Rules==
A horizontal bar, known as the limbo bar, is placed atop two vertical bars. All contestants must attempt to go under the bar with their backs facing the floor. Whoever knocks the bar off or falls is eliminated from the contest. After everyone has completed their turns, the bar is lowered slightly and the contest continues. The contest ends when only one person can successfully "limbo" under the bar.
