Ndere Dance


These ladies were amazing singers!

It was great to meet new people from all over the world while staying at the orphanage. I hope to keep these friendships for a long time!

The drummers from Rwanda were amazing! The drums were very heavy, so it was hard to believe they could balance them on their head. This man was even kicking his drum with his foot!



Doing acrobatics

Yes, those are pots on top of their heads!


On our first Sunday in Kampala, a group of us went to the Ndere Centre to see the dance troupe and have dinner. They performed several dances from across the Uganda region, as well as, hosting troupes from other countries like Rwanda. It was amazing to watch and a great start to the trip. The food wasn't too bad either.
