Bon Odori is the traditional Japanese dance to celebrate the summer festival of Obon, honoring our ancestors.
The Seattle Buddhist Church will be hosting their Bon Odori festival this weekend, on July 16-17, 2011. You can join them for traditional Japanese food, dancing, martial arts and exhibits from 4PM-10PM on Saturday and 3PM-8PM on Sunday.
You might want to practice your Bon Odori dance moves before you show up as well, which this video will help with.
