Dance In Zimbabwe
Dancing in Zimbabwe is an important aspect of the Zimbabwean culture, tradition, spirituality and history.

Ethnic diversity is also a key factor in influencing the dances of the Zimbabwean culture. These dances are self-reflective, for the entire community because all music and dance are communal events. Dance to Zimbabweans is a very spiritual, powerful tool that carries on traditions, and chronicles the important events of their history and culture.

“The deft white-stockinged dance in thick-soled
shoes! Denmark’s sanctuaried Jews!”
