With one foot firmly planted in the musical traditions of West Africa and another stepping towards modern innovation, WADOMA endeavors to bring a centuries-old form of social expression to Western audiences.

Although many of our group are not African, our passion for the ability of rhythm and movement to connect people across cultures had led many members to study intensively in West Africa and with West African musicians and dancers in the United States.

WADOMA blends African, American and other global art forms to create a one-of-a-kind spectacle of movement and sound, educating and inspiring people through the universal experience of music and dance.
