Students will explore authentic dance styles from various West African countries, including movements inspired by the rhythms of the drum, storytelling, and celebrations. Each class is a journey through the history, culture, and community spirit of African dance. In this class, we emphasize the importance of community and cultural appreciation. West African dance often tells stories of daily life, nature, and spirituality, offering students a deep connection to the traditions and heritage behind the movements.
