Ssuuna – African Dancing and/or Drumming
$2,500.00
Students learn some of the dances and rhythms of traditional and modern East Africa. Learn how the Amagunju dance evolved as a way to soothe an infant king and how traditional values like respect and gratitude are passed on through song and story. Ssuuna can tailor this drum, song, or dance residency to the needs of the classroom, focusing on only dancing, singing, or drumming, or including some of each discipline.
