African Drum & Dance
Learn about the beautiful cultures of Africa and the African diaspora through music. In this class students will have the opportunity to drum, sing, and dance. This is a family friendly class for all ages 7 to 99 but adults and children are invited to register separately-whatever suits your family. No experience in dance or drumming is required-just a willingness to learn and have fun. (You may choose to drum only if you don't choose to dance.) Our drum and dance teachers, Miss Olivia and Mr. Max, masterfully teach several levels in one class, so drummers with experience are also welcome to register.
Participants may have the opportunity to participate in a community performance or Festivals of Light, but it is optional for this class.
The investment for this class for the entire semester is $200.
