My homegirl and fellow artist Sabrina Davis invited me to her African Dance class and i jumped at the opportunity and it was my first time ever so i was like a kid in a candy store. The most amazing thing about that experience is that it allowed me to feel free and i was in the state of bliss. I highly encourage everyone to try it at least once. This particular class is tought in Houston TX by a lovely spirited lady named Karma Soul at Enter Me Studio on Sundays from 4-5:30pm 617 Richmond Ave. 77006.. ps dont forget to download my latest mixtape Gravity here awe.sm

African Dance: Lesson #1

Thank you Natalia for participating. It helps for people to see that there is more than one way to do the dance. You do the dance with such grace…it looks effortless. Everyone should feel free to add some of their own flavor without changing the movement. Remember tapping is totally open to everyone, if you feel comfortable and know the routine well you too can participate.
