We bring together world-class masters of dancers and drummers to share 2 days intensive celebrating of West African music and dance

 

JUMPforJoy was created in loving memory of Diene Sagna's mum, Yaye Dib, who was a professional dancer and an inspiration to her son and family. Yaye Dib sadly passed away in 2009 and the 1st JUMPforJOY Africa event launched in London, UK in 2011.
