Hello my name is Michelle Hughes, welcome to the Essence of African
Dance. In my previous blog, I introduced you to specific types of dance,
such as, Choreography, Formalized Movement, Line, Form, and Repetition as well
as Rhythm. Today I will introduce you to the history of African dance and what it
embodies. Most of us know that Africa is a continent known
for having rhythm in its blood, and it is this innate quality that makes people
of Africa so expressive. Through dance Africans
are able to express their social values and patterns. African dance represents the life and culture of
the community.
