African Dance
If you can walk you can dance

For Mamadou M’Baye African dance is first of all the joy of moving with the music of drums. He is teaching original African dances intending to make the participants aware of the unity of musical and physical rhythms. Mamadou refers not only to traditional and ritual dances from Senegal but also from West Africa in general teaching both their origins and their meaning.

Above all Mamadou intends to convey joy in moving in accordance with the music of the drums. In a playful manner the storyteller will keep to his credo "Human beings can learn everything they created!“



Mamadou M‘Baye
More than fifteen years now the Senegalese Mamadou M’Baye – member of an old Griot family – has been a cultural ambassador in Europe, regarding himself as a modern traditionalist. In the original meaning of his African culture a dancer as much as a musician and storyteller Mamadou considers himself mainly as a cultural go-between.
