African & Contemporary Mix with Pulga Muchochoma on Friday, Nov 6th

ABOUT THE CLASS 

Pulga’s classes are based on movement from a mix of traditional Southern African Dances and  Afro Fusion Dance and Music from Mozambique, Nigeria, Ghana, Angola, South Africa, etc.

Pulga also brings a collective of contemporary dance styles and practices with the intention of creating a space where movement becomes a tool of self searching from an individual point of view though a collective way of sharing.

In his opinion teaching is also a self lesson practice. Pulga isn’t coming only to teach but also to learn how to guide and learn how to adjust
