In the video which has over 14 800 views, two Tsonga women can be seen dancing in front of a crowd, to cultural music dressed in Xibelani which are multi coloured knee length pleated skirts mostly worn by Tsonga women. The skirt is made with about 18 metres of a fabric called salempore.
The Xibelani dance (Shibelani, Shibelana, Shibelane), which sees the women shaking their hips to the music, is an indigenous dance of the Tsonga women of South Africa.
“The name of the dance comes from the native Xitsonga language and it can translate to "hitting to the rhythm", for example, the concept "xi Bela ni vunanga". The name "xibelani" typically refers to the dance style while the skirt itself is referred to as "tinguvu", however, the term "xibelani" is sometimes used to refer to both the dance and the skirt,” stated Wikipedia.

The xibelani skirt is designed to make the wearer's hips look bigger, and thereby to emphasize the shaking, presumably the reason why @Gordasss motivated that girlfriend’s must be Tsonga on his Twitter post.
