A continuing study of the dances of West Africa and the African Diaspora that connects the traditional West African roots to contemporary dance forms like Hip Hop, House and popular social dances. These forms are considered globally competitive and relevant in today’s field of dance. Students will be challenged and encouraged to generate their own movement, while accessing West African and African Diasporic movement vocabulary to create choreography for group projects and a culminating class performance; as well as the possibility of performing at campus wide events and the Dance show. This is a studio-based course. Prerequisite: DANC 155   CLA-Breadth/Arts
