http://www.jccc.net/home/depts/003100/site/press_main/events_by_month/wafricanda

Extractions: Story by Peggy Graham West African Dance Company Performs, Teaches Authentic, traditional West African Dance will be performed by 16 dancers, offering an electrifying display of choreography and polyrhythmic drumming from Senegal, Mali and Guinea. The energetic dance is compelling with gorgeously draped and robed performers. Every detail is attended to, even the rasping timbre of the beads that thrash on the women's dresses. KanKouran West African Dance Company was founded in 1983 by artistic director Assane Konte, and former director of music, Abdou Kounta, both from Senegal, West Africa. In 1992, Medoune ("Dame") Yacine Gueye, an outstanding drummer from Senegal, assumed the position of director of music. A non-profit organization, the company was founded for the purpose of contributing to the extension of the arts by introducing the essence of traditional African dancing and drumming to audiences in the U.S. Company members come from the United States, Africa and the Caribbean.

The dancing is joyful, expressive and highly participatory. This live performance video is offered for sale as a means of sharing Dagara music and culture with the global community of music teachers, students, and enthusiasts.

In America, the dance movement of Africa was restrained mainly by two factors There was a place in America, however, where african dancing did flourish
http://www.theatredance.com/mhist01.html

Extractions: The term "swinging quality" is important to understand and recognize as a defining characteristic of African rhythm. Whereas European music tends to accent the first and third beat of a bar of music, or accent all beats equally, African rhythms tend to accent the second and fourth beats. This gives the feeling of a rebound, or as if the second and fourth beats were an answer to the first and third beats. It is a bounce, like a bouncing ball, that rebounds and continually renews the energy of the beat. Dolores Kirton Cayou, in her book Modern Jazz Dance, agrees with the Stearns characteristics but also adds the quality of "polyrhythm in body movements". This is the practice of moving individual parts of the body in opposing and separate rhythms. It is a feat of coordination and complexity. It is another of the important movement qualities that Africans brought to America during the slave trade that are still visible in the jazz dances of the twentieth century.
