With this, he will be representing the vibrant culture and style from which Afro dance originates. The concept showcases how the infectious beats and rhythms of Afro-music naturally inspire movement and dance. The performance highlights the pure culture and style of this African folk art form, incorporating bamboo drumsticks as a prop to enhance the tribal-like feel.
