Event
Sunday Workshop B: Gumboot - International Body Music Festival
Gumboot is a dance style that originated among South African gold miners with extremely tough working conditions. Many of the steps and routines are parodies of the officers and guards who controlled the mines and workers' barracks.Like other forms of African dance, Gumboot utilizes the concepts of polyrhythm and total body articulation, drawing from the cultural dances of the African workers that manned the mines. An enthralling dance style, Step Afrika! has studied the style at the source.
