TESTIMONIALS

Rehema's positive energy is electrifying and keeps you smiling, laughing, and working up a sweat during class. She demonstrates how your posture, your feet, the bending of your knees, arms, hands, and finger tips are all involved in the sensual, fluid-like, Congolese movements. It is rare to come across an African dance teacher, like Rehema, who can verbally explain and show you how to distinguish Guinea technique from Congolese and Mali technique from Sabar dance. Rehema reinforces the integrity of all styles of African dance, whether traditional or contemporary, so that we can utilize these forms of dance, again, for self and collective healing. As a result, Rehema, provides us with a foundation and legacy to preserve and share.

I entered the dance community as a college kid with a love for African dance ready to absorb as much as possible. I wasn't aware that the world of professional (and enthusiast) dance could be so harsh and ego-driven. When I stepped into Rehema's class, I received encouragement, compliments and technique that was foundational and full of joy. This continued to be the case over decades as Rehema augmented my studies with lessons for stage performance, tour etiquette, choreography and of course, pure dance! I have a profound respect for Rehema's wisdom and abilities and am forever grateful for her presence in my life.
