The Ecole des Sables organizes a research in choreographic writing workshop based on hip hop and African dances, gathering about thirty young choreographers, all professional dancers, from Africa and all over the world, who have strong hip hop basics (all styles). So they can explore transversal links between hip hop and African dances and project their practice, chorographic research and creativity into new territories.
 
 
The workshop is under Patrick Acogny's artistic direction with the assistance of Oliver Lefrançois.
