Roots: African Chanting, Rhythm, Dance & Connection

07:00pm, Sat 2nd Nov 2024 - 09:00pm, Sat 2nd Nov 2024

"A people without the knowledge of their past history, origin, and culture is like a tree without roots." Marcus Garvey

A 2-hour journey of the senses using African Dance, Rhythm, Song & Wisdom to ground and reconnect you to your roots.

African Roots is steeped in acknowledging the ancestors who came before you. It is said that if you heal yourself, you heal your whole Ancestral lineage both past and future.

In Africa, music, storytelling, chanting, & dancing are all ancient ways to connect to yourself, your roots and to purify your mind, body, and spirit in a contagiously joyful and uplifting way. When we sweat our prayers and dance, the doors of the cage which has held our hearts hostage fly open and spontaneously heal and move us forward.

Malaika MaVeena Darville of Jamaican/British Ancestry set out on a quest many moons ago to discover her roots- what unfolded was an incredible Spiritual journey in Africa over 17 years, discovering the power of Ancestry and using dance as a portal to connect to the unseen realms and heal your lineage, so we the living may dance in eternal gratitude for all those who came before us.

Please bring something to put on the altar that represents your ROOTS as we dance to reclaim our power and connection. This workshop will be held once a month and you don't want to miss it!

Claim your place in the circle and be prepared to move, groove, sweat, and smile all over!
