I’m dancing my dream…

I herited the dance from my grandfather and he herited it from his forefathers.

The spirit of Africa makes us dance and drum through us.

I’m dancing for myself, I’m dancing for the spirit and for the people to feel and enjoy the power.

Dance gives us the chance to express things that are beyond words.

I want to share what I know.

Teaching Experiences

The biggest part of my teaching experience originates from the period where I was the Dance Instructor of the Kusum Gboo Dance Ensemble from the year 1996 to the end of 2001. During that time I covered the following roles and areas of responsibility:

• Artistic Assistant – creating the program and stage arrangements for performances
• Member of the Technical Staff of the Ensemble – responsible for all kind of organisation issues
• Male Dance Leader
• Dance Instructor of the Ensemble – rehearsing dance pieces from the huge repertory of the group with the members and newcomers of the group
• Leading rehearsals for performances and the regular trainings held three times a week
• Instructing Kusum Gboo’s guest-students from Austria, Germany, Holland, Britain, USA, Norway and Switzerland who came to study Traditional and Contemporary African Dance with the group for several weeks or months during the last years

I also have a lot of experiences in teaching students (kindergarten to university graduate) and I trained deaf pupils of the Unit School For The Deaf in Koforidua, Ghana.
