African Dance Workshop with Angela Nwagbo.
In this workshop of traditional West African dances, Angela will focus on the basic movement vocabulary of these dances, grounding herself and anchoring herself in the rhythm. The goal of the workshop will be to settle in and relax into movements that are unfamiliar to us and enjoy the freedom that such movements can bring.
