Class experience
This class is open to everyone regardless of cultural or ethnic background. This will be a very interactive class. Students will be able to ask questions to clear their doubts. Classes will run for 45 minutes and we’ll cover topics related to countries in Africa, traditional dance styles and modern day interaction with Afrobeats and Afrohouse dances. In my class I prioritize student engagement and learning. Half of the class will be for dealing with the theoretical aspect (history) and the...
Student will improve their understanding of dance and its history especially as it relates to the African culture. They will understand movements and rhythm and they will be able to learn basic dance styles from certain African cultures.
I love dancing and I’ve grown more passionate about it over the years, particularly as it relates to cultural dance. I love being African and I’ll like to share our amazing culture around the world. Though I've been dancing all my life, I have 4 years experience teaching it professionally.
Homework Offered
There will be no formal assignments in this class, but students will be advised to do certain mild research on certain African dance styles. This will help us to have an interactive session.Assessments Offered

Learners can come to class with notepad and pen/pencil to take information down. Also due to the nature of the class we will be performing some physical activities so I will advise learners to come to class with a bottle of water, they will also need extra workout space to perform some of the dance moves.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Due to the nature of the class we will be performing some physical activities (dance) so I will advise learners to come to class with a bottle of water, they will also need extra workout space to perform some of the dance moves. Most of African traditional dances are best performed barefoot but if your child/ward has tender feet then it is advisable to keep footwear handy for the class.
Most of the materials we will be using will be from my personal knowledge as a dance teacher. Additionally, we will use extra materials such as pre-recorded dance videos where I perform some of the dance moves so we can discuss and learn together about the moves in class.
