Recommended age group: Grades 4 -12

Step Afrika! is the first professional company dedicated to the tradition of stepping.

Step Afrika! blends percussive dance styles practiced by historically African-American fraternities and sororities; traditional African dances; and an array of contemporary dance and art forms into a cohesive, compelling artistic experience. Performances are much more than dance shows; they integrate songs, storytelling, humor and audience participation. The blend of technique, agility, and pure energy makes each performance unique and leaves the audience with their hearts pounding.

FIVE DAYS WITH STEP AFRIKA! will provide schools with five (5) pre-recorded videos including an introductory video and educational guide highlighting the history of stepping; a stepping tutorial; two (2) performance videos; and a pre-recorded Q&A session with company members that will allow students to learn more about the artists and their lives.
