african dancing
This is a 10 minute film of two boys dancing to African music, having been inspired at group time by one little boy’s visit to the theatre to see ‘Elephant’. Both boys dance very differently, but connect and work well together. They show great body strength, initiate dance movements, and respond incredibly to the style and rhythm of the music, as they clearly relish this new experience together.
