Come join visiting West African Ghanaian master Nani Agbeli in this rare three-week class designed to introduce both beginning and experienced students to the beautiful, intricate rhythms, songs and movements of Ghana. This class will focus on the lively Atsiagbekor dance of the Ewe-speaking people. Originally a dance performed when warriors returned to the village, it is now performed on many social and celebratory occasions and exemplifies the intrinsic relationship between drummer and dancer. Nani Kwashi Agbeli is a native of the Ewe people from the Volta Region of Ghana. He has been a drum and dance instructor at the Dagbe Cultural Center in Kopeyia, Ghana for 9 years and is currently an artist-in-residence at Tufts University. Drop-ins are welcome, however pre-registration for all three classes is highly recommended, as the material builds cumulatively from class to class. Everyone ages 14+ is welcome. Register by phone or online.
