Description
Begin with a convenient pickup from your hotel in Nairobi. Arrive at the performance space or open-air studio, where you’re welcomed with upbeat rhythms and warm smiles.
Start with an introduction to Kenyan percussion. Learn how to hold the drum, create different tones, and understand basic rhythm patterns. From there, gradually build into group drumming, call-and-response rhythms, and fast-paced beats.
Next, dive into the dance component. Try out moves inspired by Afro-contemporary styles, traditional Kenyan dances, and Nairobi’s modern urban scene. Your instructors guide you step by step, helping you understand the meaning behind each movement, the cultural roots of the rhythms, and how dance communicates stories about daily life, celebration, unity, and identity.
Whether you consider yourself rhythmically gifted or have never touched a drum before, this tour is designed to be fun, welcoming, and energizing for all skill levels.
