5 Rythyms: Incorporates different types of music related to the rythyms. Flowing, staccato, lyrical, chaos and stillness. As Kelly says "We danced the rhythms and each one represents a different wave. Flowing is circular movements, birth, like a river flowing and meandering. Staccato is sharp and angular movements. Lyrical is joyful like a child, Chaos is letting go completely, anger, power, strength, surrender and Stillness is death, peace, finding that stillness inside." African Dance: The mood of the African people are expressed by the sound and rythym of the drum. The drum is to evok emotions to touch the heart and souls of those who hear the rhythyms.
