Jacky Essombe is a “cultural liaison” between the African and the Western worlds.  A professional dancer, dance teacher, speaker, storyteller, and TV and radio show host, she truly believes that Westerners can benefit from her African heritage and the wisdom of
the ancestors to enhance their lives. 

Cameroonian dancer and entertainer Jacky Essombe invites you to spend an evening under the palm tree with your family and your community on Saturday, November 14th, like it is done in Africa, sharing food, stories, music and dance.  This event is in the likeness of a true African village:grandparents, parents, children and grandchildren spending time together, in celebration. The Spirit of the Village is a family event that brings happy people together and lifts the spirit of those who need it! So please bring your children and your entire family to celebrate together! You will be “wowed” with traditional and acrobaticAfricandances and exciting music, you will experience a conversation with a “Talking Drum”, and you will enjoy a delicious home cooked African meal.
