Lesson Details
Soko is a traditional rhythm of the Komanko people of Guinea’s Faranah region, originally used in male initiation but now popular throughout Guinea for weddings and other ceremonies.
This West African dance lesson originally appeared on the DVD "West African Dance Vol 2". It is our pleasure to make it available online for students of African dance and dancers who wish to cross-train in multiple disciplines.
If you are dancer who feels you could grow in the areas of groundedness, earthiness, arm movement, hand movement, head movement, full body coordinated movement, letting go completely, and solo movement and expression in general, this dance will send you along that path by leaps and bounds.
