African Dance Events

Written By: Osahene Blackmore In Entertainment

The Aklowa Drum Band isn't just a musical ensemble; they're a vibrant force keeping traditional Ghanaian dance alive. Led by the creative energy of Benjamin Borketey, the Aklowa troupe blends high-octane drumming with over 200 meticulously preserved dance movements.

The feeling

The Aklowa experience transcends performance. They organize events where audiences can witness the electrifying energy of Ghanaian dance. Imagine witnessing the powerful kicks and intricate footwork of the Djorwaa dance, expertly guided by the rhythmic pulse of the drums. Band members like Benjamin Borketey, Daniel Kpakpo, Ebenezer Tawiah, and Rejoice A. Quaye are not just musicians; they're storytellers, their bodies translating the rich tapestry of Ghanaian culture through movement.

Aklowa's dedication extends beyond their own performances. They participate in festivals and cultural gatherings, sharing their passion and knowledge with a wider audience. Their infectious enthusiasm ensures that these traditional dances, passed down through generations, continue to captivate hearts and inspire movement.
