Experience the Rhythm of West Africa
Our mission is sharing culture and building community through Traditional West African Drum and Dance.
With classes, workshops, performances, and shows, we showcase the beauty of African heritage across the Greater Charlotte.
Our Story
At the heart of our collective is a shared passion for preserving and celebrating traditional West African dance and drumming. From Charlotte to the Ivory Coast, our teaching artists bring decades of experience as dancers, drummers, performers, and cultural ambassadors. Whether introduced through college study abroad, medical school residencies, or family legacies rooted in African artistry, each member of our team carries a deep commitment to movement, music, and community. Together, we cultivate spaces where culture comes alive and the next generation of dancers and drummers can grow.
