Get Involved

The Fort Collins African Drum & Dance Collective is dedicated to learning, teaching, and promoting traditional African rhythms. It’s through the kinetic conversation between the drummers and the dancers that the rhythms come alive. Our community is sustained by a deep respect for our teachers and by studying, sharing, and celebrating the rich culture of African drum and dance together.

Learn to drum, dance, or both!!  

We meet Sundays:

3:30 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. Drum Class

5:00 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. Dance Class

Beginning August 2, 2026 we will be meeting at our new location: Foothills Unitarian Church, 1815 Yorktown Ave, Fort Collins, CO 80526 (off West Drake Road). Park in the west parking lot and come up to the door on the west side of the building.

We meet just about every week, but to keep up to date, join our email list and follow our Facebook and Instagram accounts.  That is where the latest up-to-date class information is always shared.

Drums are available for use at each class.

Cost:

$15 for classes taught by one of our local volunteer teachers

Fees from our weekly community drum and dance classes help cover rent and artists’ fees for guest teachers.
