Vision ahead!
The drumming and dance of Southern Italy are an exotic blend of all other cultures who have influenced it. Muslim, Christian, Jew, Greek, Arab, Egyptian, and more have left their influence. Born in America into a Southern Italian family I have had the unique privilege and experience of meeting a wide diversity of people and opportunity. Incorporating a collective understanding and awareness from traveling and other cultures I have encountered. My goal is to share these traditions emphasizing diversity and freedom embodied in the rhythm and culture, along with creating my own performances.
