DANCE FOR JOY 2026
Beginning West African Dance w/ Tenenfig Dioubate
Class location: MARK MORRIS DANCE CENTER (3 Lafayette Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11217)

Move to live drumming through a full-body warm-up, dynamic exercises across the floor, and choreography rooted in traditional West African dances. This is dance as a way to connect with your roots and understand culture through embodied practice — energetic, joyful, and open to everyone from first-timers to seasoned dancers. Led by teaching artist Tenenfig Dioubate, who brings a lifetime of experience and deep cultural knowledge to the studio.

This season's theme is Resilience. Donation-based and culminating in a student performance — pay what you can, $5–$45. Every class, every level.
