Duniya Dance and Drum Company's artists are excited to teach you West African dance and South Asian dance styles, including Bhangra and Bollywood! These fun and energetic classes will be sure to have you dancing, learning and smiling! These classes are ideal for children 5-12 years old.

Formed in April 2007, Duniya Dance and Drum Company creates dance and music from Punjab, India, and Guinea, West Africa, as well as unique blends of these forms and beyond. The word duniya means “world” in a wide array of languages, including Punjabi, Arabic, Susu and Wolof. Duniya’s work embodies this word, as it explores the forces that have brought together the members of the company and their dance and drum styles, including, but not limited to, colonization, globalization, immigration, art, dance, music and love.

You are encouraged to join all 8 fun and energetic classes, but there is nothing wrong with joining for only one. We are planning to offer West African Dance with Drums for the first four weeks, Thursday, June 3 - Thursday June 29. Bhangra and Bollywood will be offered Thursday, July 1 - Thursday, July 29 (except July 8). This schedule is subject to change.
