Peace Through Music

Maia Gallo, Aki Conquest, Isa Maria, Melody Harringer

At the heart of Aloha Africa is Love Tribe, a circle of women who study traditional African drumming and dance, and who dedicate their practice to loving the earth, one another, and the great web of life.

Since 2001 Love Tribe has been sharing music, dance, and aloha in circles, at peace rallies and environmental and social justice marches, weddings, funerals, birthdays, festivals, ceremonies, classes, and concerts.

Cultural Exchange

There is powerful medicine in the unity of earth-based cultures. In both Hawaii and Africa, dancers and musicians are the keepers of tradition, history, and spiritual practices. The Aloha Africa cultural exchange project provides an authentic means to preserve and transmit deep indigenous knowledge … dancer to dancer, drummer to drummer.
