  • Traditional African Drum & Dance Workshop

Come let the spirit of African Rhythms and Dance inspire you with Koffie Fugah From Ghana
Koffie grew up in a village called Abor from the Volta Region of Ghana where traditional music and dance is part of daily life. He has taught African dance and drumming for about 15 years in schools and to expatriates both in Ghana and abroad.  For more information about Robert and to see videos of his work, go to www.robertfugah.co.nz
He says "As an effective communication tool, drumming helps people realise their own contribution to the group. It highlights that everyone's input, no matter how small, can make a marked difference to the success of a group. By playing rhythms together as an ensemble, groups develop a powerful synergy and sense of unity. Our workshops break down age, social and gender barriers. It's a fun and accessible activity that everyone is drawn to and anyone can do."
