Chuck Davis - African American Dance Ensemble

African Roots in American Soil - Chuck Davis' research on the history, music and dance of specific cultural groups enables him to choreograph African American interpretations of authentic material from Africa. Videos includes "Lamban," a Griot or historian's dance from the Old Mali Empire, circa 13th century, and "Isicathulo," a gum boot dance of the Shona, Ndebele and Zulu people in Southern Africa. Lessons feature an African folktale as well as chants, proverbs, Kwanzaa, and ways to develop leadership through dance.
