Eugene Ansah is the Lead Drummer
of the award winning Ghanaian Odehe Dance Company. He has been
drumming for the last 20 years, and been teaching for more than
12 years. Ansah is based in Ghana, where he is the lead instructor
at the Odehe Centre, which teaches drumming and dancing to international
students.
He has also performed widely
in Europe, particulary Germany and Norway, and has also led workshops
with international students in Europe. This will be Ansah's second
visit to Rustlers Valley, the first being in 1999 when Ansah
toured South Africa with other Odehe Dance Company members, teaching
and performing at various festivals in KwaZulu Natal and the
Free State.
He is known for his patience
and good sense of humour, but also knows how to push people so
that they go beyond what they thought they could learn within
a limited time. Ansah will share with the Rustlers workshop his
years of experience. |
