These dances were used to teach social patterns and values and helps people work, mature, praise or criticize while also celebrating festivals, funerals, competing, reciting history, and poetry. This program is designed to teach African dance while improving fitness, emotional well-being, social skills and offering intellectual stimulation by providing new opportunities.

Educational GamesReading Circle
Children will learn and practice reading to further develop their skills. They are encouraged to continue using and developing their new skills by taking turns reading aloud as well as reading along in the text while other read aloud. When children become good readers at an early stage, they are more likely to become better learners throughout their school years.
