As the lady arises both the music and the dancers movements and rhythms picks up and the use of space is increased. Music

Nommo is a unique dance performance in my view. This dance performance was choreographed by Sheron Wray. It not only gives the visual enjoyment‚ but also can give people with confidence and strength. I can feel a pure joy in those dancers’ movements by this dance‚ even the movements were not drawn from traditional forms. In some way‚ African dance is also in the long-term practice of continuous improvement and improvement‚ it is deeply rooted among the people‚ with a strong rhythm‚ rich feelings
