Don’t miss this special opportunity to dance one of Senegal’s most exhilarating dance styles: Sabar! Sabar is a fun, energetic, upbeat dance that is often performed at weddings, naming ceremonies and other celebrations. Darnetha Lincoln M’Baye will break down the rhythms and the steps of Sabar in this class. Once you experience the excitement, you’ll be hooked!

Darnetha had formal dance training in modern and jazz before focusing on African dance in graduate school, where she performed with African Caribbean Dance Theater. She went on to work with Mamadou Dahoue and The Ancestral Messengers (Ivory Coast), Bousso Dance Company (Senegal), Aminata Gueye Dance Company (Senegal), and the well-known ensemble, Sing Sing Rhythms (Senegal). In 2009, Darnetha founded Roots In Revolution, an all-female contemporary dance company whose work blends modern and folkloric movement and concepts.
