Soul Steps: Intro to Step with Maxine Lyle
Soul Steps is a world-renowned African American step dance ensemble described by the NY Times as “electric and joyous.” Their introductory workshops invite students to transform their bodies into drums and engage with the lively physical language of step. As they learn to make music with their bodies and give powerful vocal chants, students journey through step’s origins among African American fraternities and sororities and throughout the African Diaspora. Central workshop themes are community, diversity and inclusion, self-expression, teamwork, leadership, and social and emotional development. Assemblies also available.
