One of such occasions as seen in the background was an old man shoving aside a plus-sized fellow who appeared to be obstructing his view.
The plus-sized fellow took a different position after quietly leaving the area the old man stood.
@abctravelgreenbook who shared the lady's video on social media explained that the unique dance move is called Gwoka.
According to the media outlet, it is an improvised way in which enslaved Africans in Guadeloupe (an island in the northeastern edge of the Caribbean Sea) communicated in the face of 'unspeakable oppression.'

"I love these so much but our culture is so rich that we don’t have to accredit everything to slavery. We were everywhere before that happened."

@francesca_pope opined:
"Oh my gosh! I have never learned of this form in Guadeloupe or seen it! It’s like what we know in the US that was called Juba. Thank you for sharing this video with me. At first i thought it was just you sharing dance videos with me cuz we both love them and then i saw the text. This woman is like a human light or a ribbon being twirled, i thought she was maybe 14 or so because of that energy, but if you look close she’s a grown woman, she’s just channeling a lot of life, a lotta lives actually."
@eis4evan stated:
"Idk why but I felt a way when I saw the old lady in the back wearing the pink dress dancing along with her cane. It was almost like a look of approval and it just touched me in a way i can't explain."

Earlier, Briefly News reported a video of two little girls performing a traditional dance on a street has left internet users awestruck.
The dance style which is believed to have its origin from the world's second-largest island country Madagascar was showcased by little Miss Zaniko and Tsimivaly in the full glare of men and women.
In the cute video reposted by @abctravelgreenbook on Instagram, the girls took centre stage barefooted on the dusty ground with some men behind them appearing to complement their dance moves.
