Oh, what a fantastic day we had at our studio!
We were honored with the workshop for the mesmerising show "Head And the Load" by the renowned artist William Kentridge from @lessgoodidea
The energy and creativity were flowing all around us as we gathered together for a day of exploration and team building.
We had a blast collaborating and bringing our unique talents to the table.
We're all eagerly anticipating the show and can't wait to see the magic live on stage.

Human beings have so many problems.
My biggest problem is: I am jealous of the creator hence I have always done something via IsiPantsula on global stages since 25 years now 🕯️.
It doesn’t hurt though.
Off for a South American short 22 Days tour:

DANCE AS RESISTANCE: Afrikan dance serves many purposes; healing, celebration, spiritual upliftment and ritual. In today’s world, dance seems to be reduced to showing off trending moves and Tik-Tok challenges. Do we remember the meaning of PANTSULA?
Resistance and commentary against Apartheid’s extreme violence took many forms; one of them was Pantsula. Shaped by traditional culture, this was a dance-culture which took on strong elements of revolting against oppression, responding to forced removals and creating socio-political awareness
What should we all know about Pantsula and its cultural-political roots? How relevant is Pantsula dance as a form of social commentary and political activism? What should be our Pantsula-expression today, as we battle with contemporary injustices?
@ebukhosini_solutions is proud to introduce a distinguished dancer, teacher, choreographer, artistic director and….. a proud Pantsula: M’Afrika Vusi Mdoyi.
