Norma attempts to challenge every single participant according to their level, and she tries to ensure that in all situations one thing is not forgotten: the enjoyment of dancing.

The workshops and courses are accompanied by Sean and one of his groups on the djembe and bass drums. The communication between the dancers and the musicians lies at the heart of West African dance, and comprises therefore a fundamental part of the workshops. Hence, it is important to Norma that the dance is supported by live music, because only then can the participants develop a feeling for the interplay between the rhythm and the dance figures.
