African dance and songs are the main focus on which we will develop expressiveness, community awareness, and sensitive movement. We will initially work on the awareness of the body-mind as a unity. From this will emerge attention and the encounter with one's own power. Once connected, we will work on traditional songs and movements that will ultimately be combined into a choreography. The workshop will be accompanied by live percussion, allowing us to experience the constant dialogue between dance and music that this powerful ancestral tradition of art brings.
