Street style dancing in South Africa was first formally recognise in the 1950`s in the townships where settlers forcibly moved black African people from their land to informal settlements/ dump sites.This became anew way of life for black Africans in South Africa, the genres of KWAITO is derived from music and has developed into dance style with a specific dress code and a linguistic styles from South African Townships.
What background, training, and or relationship do you have with this style/technique/class subject?
KWAITO / (South African Street Dance) is a genre born out of the townships as a unifier and how people connect through music and has developed into a skill in dance. I`ve been trained in Street dance in addition to contemporary and Classical ballet and now teach and train KWAITO as a fitness regimen and provide space to enjoy this genres as a street dance experience.
Finish this statement: I am passionate about teaching this style because…
…I am passionate about teaching this style because KWAITO is a way of life and part of our street culture and I`d like to share this with the world through music and sharing of dancing in different corners of the world. KWAITO is also a fitness regimen for many young people in the Townships and growing up in this environment I will bring this spirit to the studio for all to enjoy.
