Here is a quote from the 2008 - 2009 COMPAS Artist's Handbook:
"I began my dance training on the sidelines of my mother's dance classes. I came to see dance as a part of everyday life - we danced each day, we danced to celebrate, to mourn and to express... I have been studying and teaching  | | Kenna "in action" | West African dance ever since. In high school, Hip-Hop entered my life. I help students discover the beauty and traditionof West African drum and dance. I push them to examine the Hip-Hop dance they find so appealing, and to search for its sources in the traditinoal West African dance that we explore. I teach traditional African songs and dances  | | Kenna will teach us DANCE! | in an easygoing, interactive format - all the time giving background cultural information in the form of engaging stories and folktales. Students will know the history and movements of at least one traditinoal West African dance and its accompanying rhythm and song. I hope to help students feel the call of the drum in their own souls."
