Venue: Maasai Mara – Kenya – Africa
Maasai Dance Workshop & Nature Immersion in Kenya
Registration: https://forms.gle/ZdwWrEVWAn6sCzVD8
Your breath becomes rhythm. Your body becomes a wave!
Core Philosophy
This workshop immerses us in Maasai culture through the gateway of the Anuang’a undulation technique, a practice of body undulation linked to rhythmic breath and voice. We move to reconnect: with our own body, with the ancient wisdom of the Maasai people, and with the landscape of Kenya itself.
The Three Pillars of the Retreat
- DANCE:
The Anuang’a Undulation Technique & Afro-Contemporary Expression
Daily Morning Practice: Maasai undulation movements and rhythmic breathing. These are somatic explorations, not performances. No prior dance experience is needed—only your willingness to feel and sound.
A Sample Day at the Retreat
Morning (9am – Noon): Anuang’a Technique Workshop (Undulation, Breath-Voice Connection, Maasai Movement Vocabulary)
Late Afternoon (4pm–5pm): Eng’udi Dance (dancing with Maasai stick) & Improvisation Session
Workshop Curriculum:
The Wave: Learn the foundational, wave-like body undulation characteristic of Maasai dance, discovering its source and its release through the spine.
Breath as Rhythm: Transform the simple act of inhalation and exhalation into a musical force. Experience how rhythmic breathing initiates movement.
Connecting Earth & Sky: Practise the famous Maasai jumps, understanding them not just as physical feats but as spiritual connectors between the terrestrial and the celestial.
The Art of Improvisation: Explore free-form movement. - SAFARI:
Game drive in the plain of Maasai Mara
A guided walk in the surrounding nature.
Climb local hills to learn about the medicinal plants of the Maasai land. - Community Connection:
Visit the local market to discover its treasures and connect with the community.
