WACHEVA PROGRAMS:

* WORKSHOP YES, IS ON.

* PERFORMANCE & CLASS NOT READY YET.

* * * Wacheva African dance/drum workshops are open.

Wacheva offers multiple types of workshops for Schools, Colleges or Dance Studios to choose from.
It is up to the interested schools or dance studios and the teaching artist to determine together the timing and schedule.

Students will be told the name of the dance and drum that they will learn, its place of origin and meaning.

Each dance step or drum rhythm will be broken down to a simple form and taught in an A, B, C-style of instruction.

The teacher will verbally play the drum rhythm, much like beat boxing, so the students become familiar with this style of drum rhythm and dance movement before they dance with live drums.

* * * About WACHEVA's African dance and drum performance.

The dance & drum performance is based and consists of the multifaceted traditional dances, rhythms and songs.

The group performs at various Schools, Colleges, Universities and Communities events.
Purpose:
Our tradition of this folk art was not designed for the stage on which it is so often presented today.

But since modernization has emerged, our culture has become a bridge, allowing this culture to connect with other cultures and peoples around the world.

It is also a means of communicating the values ​​of life in Africa.

STAY TUNED.
