In this step-by-step tutorial, the lead dancer and director of the Damballa dance troupe leads you through a progression of traditional African dances that promote both physical and emotional well-being through symbolic gestures and positive energy. Dances include the sowu, a "dance of life" from Ghana; the umoya, a South African dance that draws energy from heaven and earth; and the nago, an empowering Afro-Haitian warrior dance.
