I've watched this video about 20 times consecutively, and it would be unfair if I didn't share it with you.

I honestly don't know who was more fascinated by the dance-the dancers, the musicians, or the photographer.

The music was pelting and demanding, the dancers were energized and moving with such intensity that it invited the drummers to step up even more.

Then there was the photographer, cheering on the dance and saying to the leader (as if he could've heard him lol), "Go in de middle, Go in de middle!"--something he knew had to happen for this performance.

This dance is called WILDMAS, and by now you can probably see why it is the crowd's favourite and one of the most loved dances in the masquerade repertoire-even by the "photographer" lol.

One thing I want to highlight among the many impressive aspects of this performance is the strategic leadership on display. Watch how commanding the leader is with the use of the tomahawk, moving in sync with the rhythm of the drums. His reflexes are sharp, precise, and on point, keeping the musicians alert, engaged, and ready for every cue.

What is even more fascinating is how his teammates respond. They know exactly how to follow his leadership, even when new stunts and movements emerge in the moment. There is a word for that--trust. Trust built through practice, discipline, consistency, and a shared understanding of the art form.

That level of cohesion doesn't happen by accident. It is earned and that is part of what makes WILDMAS so captivating and pulsating.

I know I post about this lady a lot, but I simply cannot overlook people who genuinely support me, and if you know my story, then you know why moments like these mean so much.

Practice with the community had just come to an end, and as we wrapped up, I walked over to my Aunty Gillian and said, “I don’t want anything to happen to you.” If you know, you know.

She looked at me and replied, “I’m not someone who works for recognition, and I’m not the type to seek validation from others. Some people whisper negativity about me, and yes, I’m aware of some of it, but they don’t know the work I do behind the scenes. People will always have opinions and make derogatory comments about your life and your choices. Just skip over them—it isn’t worth it.”

I told her, “Aunty, all I do is delete when necessary, block, and move on. I stopped validating other people’s feelings and opinions on my page a long time ago. People say strange things about me and about our group, but when you look at where some of those commentaries are coming from, you simply have to turn the other way. I always say that if people truly love masquerade, they don’t have to like me. They will do what needs to be done to support us and support culture, even if they can’t always be there in person.”

Then Aunty said something that touched me deeply:

“And I know some people say they’re going to support you, but they never show up. Don’t worry about that. Just know that you have my support.”

That meant a lot because I also have other Aunties who support me in their own special ways—bringing feathers, ribbons, mirrors, scarves, and other items that help keep our traditions alive. They know who they are because I celebrate them all the time, both here and on WhatsApp.

Then she said something I’ll never forget:

“Don’t worry about those who don’t support you. You have taken masquerade to another level. You have opened doors for young people and for older people like me. Old people matter too, and I’m going to dance until the day I die. I love you, J.”

At that moment, we hugged, and I won’t lie—it brought tears to my eyes.

These are the conversations that keep me going. These are the people who remind me why I continue to do this work. Behind every performance, every practice, and every cultural initiative are individuals whose encouragement, wisdom, and unwavering support make the journey worthwhile.

Strangely enough, long before this community engagement initiative was launched, Aunty Gillian had reached out to me and asked about the dates we practiced because she wanted to come and be amongst us. As many of you may not know, our group is currently raising funds towards a greater cause, and when the poster was sent to her, her response was simple: “I’m coming, J.”

Thank you, Aunty Gillian. Your words and support for country and culture will stay with me for a very long time. ❤️ I love you in every way a human heart knows how to love🫂❤️

Practice sessions calls for instances like this.
This is how EXCELLENC is built—One practice at a time. 💪🏾

Our Captain can be seen ensuring that every Masquerader remains in step, aligned and moving as a unit. Even if it appears as thou players are doing what they know is expected of them, his duty as Leader, is to oversee his ring and to make sure that mindset is kept across the dance floor.

Using his hunter as a traditional tool of command, he directs, maintains order and precision, in keeping with the high standards that define the Masquerade tradition in Saint Kitts and Nevis.

Every moment tells a story. Every command reinforces the importance of teamwork, STRUCTURE and cultural preservation. V'M 🌎🇰🇳
