Home What's New Classes Workshops ... Contact Us CAREN CALDER-PLUMMER Traditional African Dance Traditional African Dance Caren Calder-Plummer performs traditional African dances from South Africa and the West African region of Mali, Guinea, Senegal and the Ivory Coast. The rich tradition of African dance is explored through movement, rhythm and songs. The dances of West Africa include Goombey, a harvest dance, Lambaan, a dance of celebration, Sunu, a wedding dance and Manjani, Jon Don, and Wolosodon. The Can dance and the Boot dance are traditional dances from South Africa which illustrate a way of creating music from what is available. These dances were created by the workers in the mines who made music with their empty cans and danced in their work boots during break times. The Boot dance is linked to the stepping dance found in some of today's fraternities and sororities. Traditional African music and dance were interwoven into everyday life. This healing art form energizes the body, motivates the mind, and lifts the spirit. For information on West African Dance call (212) 627-1076 Back to the Dance Instructor Directory

Cercle d'Expression Artistique Nyata Nyata (The Nyata Nyata Circle of Artistic Expression) is an enterprise of contemporary artistic expression, which defines its activities in the field of African dance, with the specific objective to explore and develop the particular aesthetics of this art form as it relates to music, poetry, mythology, ritual and the related arts, bringing forth essential aspects which link the ancestral with the contemporary. This process includes choreographic creation, dance performance, musical composition, writings, conferences, the teaching and promotion thereof in a local, national and international context. Founded in 1993 as a non-profit, registered charitable organization in Canada, the Cercle d'Expression Artistique Nyata Nyata fulfills its mandate through the regroupment of three principle sectors of activity: Compagnie Danse Nyata Nyata (creation, production and performance of artistic works); Studio Danse Nyata Nyata (place of artistic, pedagogic and administrative activities); and Rhythms and Movement (method of teaching and trade name of courses).

34. African Influences On Swing Dance What follows are a list of characteristics of african dance that are found in African Movement Vocabulary. african dance moves all parts of the body, http://www.savoystyle.com/african.html

history biography film shopping Archives of Early Lindy Hop HISTORY OF SWING DANCING: AFRICAN INFLUENCES Introduction: During the days of slavery in the United States, the African slaves entertained themselves, and others, with musical and dance forms that contained elements they brought with them from Africa. Some of the dances the slaves created went on to become national dance crazes for all Americans, such as the Cakewalk, and later the Black Bottom and the Charleston. When the Lindy Hop emerged in Harlem in the late 1920's it contained many of these African characteristics. However, it was danced in a rigid, upright manner (as you can see on the Shorty George Snowden filmclip, After Seben ). In the mid-thirties, Frank Manning introduced the angular posture that soon swept the Savoy Ballroom. Manning had no idea that he was bringing the dance closer to its African roots he says, "I thought it looked better that way, that's all." What follows are a list of characteristics of African dance that are found in African-American dance forms. Many of these characteristics are still very much a part of swing dancing. Some of these characteristics are seen primarily in Savoy style Lindy Hop, and less in some of the other swing forms.
