The Pattin Juba which is also known as hambone or Juba Dance is a traditional African American dance form. This dance form involves stomping, slapping and patting various body parts such as arms, legs, cheeks and chest etc. This dance form may involve counter-clockwise turns, usually with one leg, stomping and slapping etc. This dance form was brought by Kongo slaves to South Carolina and was popular among African Americans, who performed it during their gathering when they were not allowed to use any musical instruments.
