Dandy in a Day: Movement Workshop

Step into the vibrant world of Dandyism dance, blending 18th-century flair with African resistance and self-expression. This workshop invites participants of all ages and skill levels to explore Dandyism dance alongside traditional African styles.

Led by Ziza Patrick, Artistic Director of Dandyism, and Kelewele African Dance Camp instructors, you'll learn the historical and cultural significance of these dance forms. With a focus on Cameroonian and Congolese styles, you'll explore foundational movements and choreography while celebrating creativity and individuality.

The workshop also integrates fashion with movement, offering a demonstration on constructing Dandyism-inspired outfits. You'll learn choreography to be showcased at the Luminato Festival on June 14 at Brampton Farmers Market. Whether you're an experienced dancer or new to movement, this workshop celebrates self-expression and community through dance.
