Mozambican Traditional Dances and Rhythms | Afro Swing |
---|---|
There are over 1000 traditional dances in Mozambique - each region, each village has their own traditions and variations of different rhythms and dances. Dances symbolize and accompany celebration, war, love or harvesting, however, today variations of the dances are mainly used as an individual expression or to represent the rich Mozambican culture at events. Many of these dances are traditionally only danced by women and other only by men even though today many dances are danced by all. Mozambican dances also show that what is seen as typically masculine or feminine can differ depending on the region and tradition. What all dances have in common is that rhythm comes first, movements comes second. In the Bantu languages such as Ronga and Changana, spoken in Southern Mozambique, the word “ngoma”could mean music, dance, drum or song - which in the end is all expressions of the same thing. |
Afro Swing is the research of the African roots of swing dances and the honoring of this connection. Since the concept of Afro Swing was initiated by Hodi Maputo Afro Swing in 2012, the research and development of what it is has been ongoing. We believe that is what research is about; to not accept something as true but always be open to new ideas and insight. For us Afro Swing is the beginning of a movement connecting Swing and Lindy Hop with its African roots and this is how far we have come in our research. The classes will be given with live drumming and mixed with some recorded songs. |
