The Dance Institute strives to preserve the unique Ghanain/ African culture of traditional music and dance. As the Ghanaian beliefs and culture struggle to compete with the ever-growing themes of urbanization and modernization, the Dance Institute aims to conserve the traditional aspects of Ghanaian life and expose its beauty to people all over the world.
The Dance institute also aims to give back to Ghanaian nationals by setting up an orphanage in a rural community that maintains high rates of HIV/AIDS. Your involvement and interest in the Sankofa Dance Institute will not only help preserve a nations traditions, but allow you to help out the abondanded and struggling children of a developing nation.
