An African-sprit filled experience through dance and music.

The Umoja People the Ensemble was an important force that added to my husband's birthday party being a big success. My husband, our children and I enjoyed participating with the dancers in performing some authentic African dances. The drummers were also flexible enough to play along with music that was played by our DJ. I will use the Umoja People again in the future and sing their praises to family and friends
