Join Mouminatou Camara, former principal dancer of Les Ballets Africains (Guinea’s national dance company) in a high energy class exploring traditional dances from Guinea and West Africa.

After warming up, you’ll learn the movements of specific traditional dances from Guinea and West Africa and then have a chance to practice them while traveling across the floor.  All levels are welcome. This class is accompanied by live music on traditional instruments such as the djembe and the djun-djun.

Mouminatou Camara founded Seewe African Dance Company in September 2005 and was principal dancer of the world-renowned dance company, Les Ballet Africains, for a decade. She also performed with Les Ballet Djoliba and the Army Ballet, and has performed and taught workshops extensively in the USA, Spain, France, Belgium, Germany, Martinique, and the West African countries of Senegal, Mali, and the Ivory Coast. Affectionately called “Moumi,” she says she's been dancing since she was in her mother's womb. Mouminatou brings first-hand knowledge of the history of each dance, and shares her knowledge with clarity and passion with her students.
