KOUMANKE'LE' AFRICAN DANCE & DRUM ENSEMBLE

Since 2004, the company has presented 13 seasons of traditional African dance and drum  that explodes into movement, color and sound. The company mixes the most edgy styles of dance and music, into a kaleidoscope of energy that all audiences enjoy.

Audition participants will incorporate a full body, yoga based traditional movement warm up as well as learning some of the signature repertoire that is in the style of KoumanKe'le'.  This class style audition will be utilized as a tool for contracts for future KADDE seasons.
