In
the country of Senegal’s Wolof language, “Jam Ak Jam” means “Peace and Peace.”
The essence of peace is what we express in our work.
Jam
Ak Jam performs traditional and contemporary African dance music and folklore
to audiences of all ages. The company’s founder and artistic director, a
Senegalese master dancer and choreographer, creates his vocabularies of
movement with echoes from his ancestors, as well as from the sprawling urban
centers of modern West Africa.
