What’s the Academy All About?
Led by the one and only Dr. Adama Jewel, cultural keeper, master teacher, and community queen with 25+ years in the game — this academy is about more than just dance.
It’s about storytelling through movement, celebrating culture, and stepping into your power.
Who Should Join?
Whether you're a complete beginner, a lifelong dancer, or just looking for a joyful way to move — this space is for you.
Folks of all ages and levels — from “never danced before” to “been doing this!” A dancer (from just-starting-out to seasoned mover) ready for something real.
A parent looking to gift your child something meaningful and fun.
A cultural lover, a student, a teacher, an elder — if you feel called, you belong here.
Busy humans — virtual access means it fits into your life.
Virtual dancers from anywhere in the world.
Just curious? That’s cool too. Come see what it’s all about.
Why People Keep Coming Back?
This isn’t just dance.
It’s CULTURE. It’s SOUL. It’s CONNECTION.
Every session is led by real culture bearers who don’t just teach — they live this.
You’ll leave each class feeling stronger, freer, and more connected to who you are.
When you join African Soul International, you’re not just signing up for a class — you’re stepping into a community, a culture, and a legacy that moves with purpose and pride.
Ready to move?
Don’t miss your chance to connect with culture, community, and rhythm this Spring.
