The class is community-oriented and open to everyone: dancers and non-dancers, from brand new to advanced. The regular attendees are particularly welcoming to newcomers. Class starts with a warm up and stretch before moving into choreography selected from a particular dance that has significance in Guinean or Malian culture. All dances are lead by live drummers. Whether you're looking to add some variety to your workout grind, or to learn more about other cultures through movement, you'll love the energy and camraderie that this class has to offer. Master teachers from West Africa visit periodically - these events will be announced on Facebook beforehand.
