I'm not sure why I paused on this clip when it appeared on my timeline.

I don't even know the name of the dance form (apparently it's from Saurashtra) but it shows a grandfather teaching his grandson the steps.

Yes, the dance itself is wonderful. Full of energy, joy and life.… pic.twitter.com/QbOppUzJ2f
