«Aduna», «life», in Wolof. In HipHop, as in sports, as in life, collective strength, self-improvement, competition, but also unity, bring us together and make us feel alive.
With its urban and African influences, the show "Aduna" forged an artistic link between three Senegalese dancers from the diaspora (Ibrahima Biteye, Pape Cheikh Dieng, and Alioune Sow) and three dancers from Senegal (Rayan Amu, Khadija Belgique Cissé, and Christ Zié Diali). They share a practice of standing dance styles – Hip Hop, Popping, House dance – Krump, as well as influences from traditional Senegalese dances, which they express through the sounds of breakbeats and percussion created by musician Julien Villa.
