Seated Dance Sessions
I use both original and modified versions of folk dances that I adapt into seated dances. I include a variety of movements and offer several versions sitting and standing so that people can participate as they are able. All dances are taught sitting so that everyone is included. Here we are learning Pata Pata, by Miriam Makeba from South Africa.
