Sarakasi Dancers

Over the past four years, Sarakasi has built a solid platform for developing East Africa's natural performing talents into a world-class school for the performing arts. From its base at The Godown in Nairobi, the trust runs rotating weekly training programmes for over 50 dancers, covering a range of disciplines that include traditional dance, cabaret, salsa,drumming and other contemporary dance forms.

In 2005, our dance training programme was rolled out to 15 community centres, schools and children's homes in Nairobi's poorer slums - taking the joyous expression of dance to hundreds of young people in some of the city's most downcast neighbourhoods.

Sarakasi Trust is also on the forefront of providing exchange opportunities with our international partners. Click here
