Congolese Dance

​Get your body moving and your waistlines rolling in this vibrant and high-energy Dance for Joy! workshop.  The Bula Mananga, a spiritual group dating back to the colonial era, have long honored their ancestors through the sacred Mpeve dance.  This season, join Andoche on a powerful journey through the rituals of Mpeve and the Pluit (rain) dance, where movement becomes a bridge between the physical and spiritual.  In this class, you'll learn not only the celebratory dances of the Congo but also the rich cultural stories and songs that give them life.  Experience the rhythms, connect with community, and feel the joy of honoring tradition.  This donation-based, 10 week series invites you to move with purpose and feel the joy!
