The goal of SIMDACA MOOV is to awaken Joy through dance and positive words.

Come experience an energetic moment through some popular fun African dance. These dances are from the Ivory Coast, Congo, Ghana, Nigeria, South Africa and Angola. Get ready and dance. Chefi will teach you all of the popular Afrobeat dance moves while motivating you. Come experience this lively blend of beats alongside the traditional and contemporary movement.

Introduction
Students will be greeted and taught how to greet in a native language of the dance move performed or taught.

Students will then participate through call and response. Students will learn the importance of the use of some of their body parts in African dance and demonstrate basic movements all together as a group. Students will be shown on a map of what region each move originated. Some students will be asked to demonstrate what they have learned during the workshop.
