During this Nairobi dance class, we'll introduce you to our dancers, who will share their expertise with you and show you the latest African dance moves first-hand from some of Kenya's greatest artists. We can teach hip hop, African dance, African contemporary, and many other styles of African dance.
Our dancers will also share about African dance history and more about the Kenyan culture and how dance is an integral part of our lives.
We suggest wearing comfortable clothes and shoes and an indication of the style of dance you would like to learn so that we can tailor the class for you.

About Me
Hi, my name is Marion Op het Veld and I am the Co-founder and Managing Director of Sarakasi Trust. Sarakasi Trust is a performing art charitable Trust based in Nairobi, Kenya working towards building capacity in the arts sector. The organisation has been working in the area of Culture for Development since its establishment in 2001. Sarakasi is Swahili for Circus or Acrobatics.
The Trust works as a mechanism for development by effecting actual demonstrable transformation in the livelihoods of young people, expanding their capacity through life skill workshops, capacity training, performance based training, exchange programs and commercial contracts which immediately and structurally impact their ability to access a sustainable income. Sarakasi goes beyond artistic training and is committed to the personal, social, professional and economic development of its artists. Sarakasi remains focused on providing the artists with skill sets and information that will catalyse their long-term transformation and inclusion in society. Sarakasi’s approach has always been bottom up and concentrates mostly on dance and acrobatic performing arts trainings.
