Melbourne Djembe West African Dance Workshop

Join us for a high energy West African dance workshop with live drumming accompaniment and international tutor Mitzi McRae of Melbourne Djembe! Wear comfortable clothes you can move and stretch in, bring water, and come ready to have fun!

Mitzi has studied West African dance for over 15 years and has travelled to Africa (Ghana, Burkina Faso, Guinea, Senegal, Gambia and Mali) and also to the United States to further her knowledge by learning from the masters. She is a natural teacher and over the 10 years of teaching African dance she has developed a unique style which provides a relaxed and open environment which is cherished by her students.

Mitzi has been hailed as one of Australia’s best non-African female dancers and captures the energy, vitality, joy and strength of the African dance style. Many of her students have been attending classes for as long as she has been teaching!
