African Dance There are many forms of African Dance that are reflective of their music and region of the continent. Many people forget that Africa is made up of various countries and they all have their own culture. West and South African Dance is most popular for its rhythmic drums and high energy dance movements.

African Dance The Dances are meant to demonstrate social norms and values that are held by the people in region or tribe. The dance and music is a way for the community to: celebrate festivals, funerals, maturity, weddings, praise gods, recite history, and help them get through work. There is pretty much a dance for everything! The movements normally represent something they do in their everyday life.

Dance #1/Sinte This is celebration dance. The movements are very lively and the rhythm is upbeat which means we will be working on our cardiovascular endurance. The hip and torso movements celebrate womanhood while the strong quick movements celebrate the men. This will be a great time to talk about anatomy and the muscles we are using. High reaches still honor the heavens and low gestures honor the earth.

Dance #2 /Unity An original piece meant to portray the coexistence of people on different paths. The “drawing in the sand” part expresses transition, growth, forward motion while staying spiritually grounded. There is a part when we “scoop press back”, open, and “scoop press back”, kick and press, that is describing the push and pull of life. It is also our obedience/disobedience.

Dance #3/Royalty Another original piece that represents “Royal Africa”. The upright posture, the carrying, the slow movement all speak to that fact. The ending with the organized confusion portrays exactly that, the organization involved in maintaining a vivacious kingdom.
