Elementary Dance in Ashgabat, Turkmenistan

Elementary school students practice a traditional dance in Ashgabat, Turkmenistan.

Two young elementary students stand in the center of a circle of other students, who are clapping. The two children in the center of the circle are holding hands (one male, one female). All of the students are in traditional Turkish dress, the girls wearing yellow dresses and the boys in black suits and caps. An adult stands outside the circle, wearing an indigo dress.
