    When I see black people dance, the happiness that resonates on our faces. It’s like the beat is embedded in our spirit. No matter where African diaspora has displaced some of us on this Earth, we are connected to the Motherland via the music. You, my friend, are a queen & I am happy I have found you. I love your workouts & you have a subscriber for life.

      So true! Idk what it is but when I see white people dance it has a different energy, a different flow. I'm white and I love doing african dance workouts (kukuwa fitness is a good one too in case you don't know them), I love these workouts because the energy and music is so motivating and infectuous, but honestly I'm glad nobody sees me when I do them bc I'm so stiff and awkward compared to all the wonderful people in the videos lol

    I am 38 weeks pregnant and this is my favorite workout! I haven’t been able to workout like I did pre-pregnancy, especially in the beginning when I was so nauseous. But when I do have the energy to do this video, I LOVE it! Bring me so much energy and makes me so happy 💗 all the hip movements are great for birth prep too! Thank you!! 💗💗💗

Keep in mind this is coming from a clueless southerner from the United States. Specifically Mississippi of all places. So maybe my request is all wrong. I hope it makes you laugh in a good way.

    Love it! I just started training to become a Zumba teacher after only taking a few zumba classes. But I’ve taken African classes in college and in Los Angeles and they are the funnest ever and best workout! I am excited to incorporate African moves into my Zumba routines to bring a unique twist and bring more of our energy to my community. Make sense since a lot of Latin moves come from Africa anyways!

    Thanks so much for what you do. I love dancing but rarely do as I’ve gotten older and less comfortable in my body.
    I’m trying to change that and happened to come across your video. I’m so glad I tried it out because I LOVED it.
    It felt so good to just let go and not worry about how I looked. Exercise intensity and length was just right for me too.
    I’ve subscribed, added this video to one of my playlists, and will continue to watch and engage with your content🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎

    Grand Risings! I did do most of this video workout with you. It's the music that kept me going. I'm more that halfway to my steps goal! Yeah! I'm 63 yrs old, love to dance, and this is the best music ever, for my cardio, and keeping myself in the Groove! Old is just a state of Mind.

    I'm so glad I found your channel. I have been wanting to incorporate my workouts with dance for a while, and especially with Afrobeats but just couldn't find what I was looking for. I didn't want to join a gym and I couldn't find an African dance club where I am, so as a desperate measure I searched for 'Afrobeats for beginners' and found your channel, woohoo! I joined your site yesterday and I'm looking forward the exercising with an expert in exercise and dance with Afrobeats playing in the background.
    Thank you!

    Thanks so much for a wonderful workout session, i'm sweating! loved the freestyle and latest Nigerian moves and dance steps(as requested), your playlist is always everything! just wanted to say THANK YOU! once again as i stated in the last Live video, your videos have helped me loose 50 pounds after having 3 kids in 3 years. i found your page last year. lastly i think you need to adjust the title from 20 mins as it ended up being 25 minutes. lots of love from Abuja, Nigeria ( i see you ran away from Lagos lol me too!)

    I have always admired African dance moves for the joy it brings both to the dancer and the person watching them. No other dance form is as joyous and lively as this one but never dared to try it due to its super energetic steps. Thank you for this video, now I can feel the joy and also dance to the afro beats while I shred some pounds 😃
