Make a song and dance of it

A free event at The South Holland Centre on Saturday (October 1) promises to get the whole family on their feet.

The Spalding venue is holding a special song and dance workshop with the group Black Umfolosi.

A spokesman for the group said: “Black Umfolosi’s inspirational song and dance workshops suit all age ranges and are a sheer joy to experience.

“Their performances are inspired by the traditional song and dance of their native southern Africa, with a beauty and enthusiasm that is unrivalled.”

The event takes place from 2pm to 4.30pm in The South Holland Centre function hall.

And it’s completely free to enter.

A spokesman for The South Holland Centre said: “Join Black Umfolosi for an inspirational song and dance workshop where you’ll learn traditional song and dance of their native southern Africa.

“It’s a brilliant experience for all ages.

“The group formed in 1982 in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, naming themselves after the Umfolozi Omnyama River – an area to which their ancestors can be traced to.

“Arguably Zimbabwe’s greatest ambassadors, the group have toured the UK many times building up a lasting relationship with venues and their fans.

“The group have a natural ability to communicate passion and feeling in their spectacular performances that thrill audiences worldwide.”
