My tradition is punta dance. It is important to me and my family, because it is about our Garífuna culture, which is recognized for keeping alive the richness of our customs. Punta is more representative of Honduras and has a rhythm that represents Honduras. It is of Garifuna origin and full of flavor. The places where punta is heard was created by our Garifuna community and we created our dance and music as well as the fedu, that is, a party that we generally use in festivities such as Christmas, New Year's Eve and patron saint festivities.
