This workshop is unique in that it offers more than dance training; you will plunge into the heart of Senegalese culture. Wolof class are held every morning, so come ready to learn basic greetings and conversations in the most commonly spoken language of Senegal.
Meet and greet! The first Saturday is spent getting to know a local family, and the second Saturday we travel to Goree Island in Dakar, where we will visit La Maison des Esclaves—the fortress where enslaved Africans were held just prior to being shipped out to the Americas. Additional events include nightly gatherings with local artists and a market day.
