East Charlotte North Carolina Dance Class
The Albemarle Recreation Center (Idlewild Rd North) is now hosting a unique and exciting creative dance platform entitled Mufuka Works. The East Charlotte Community now can join the creative classes offered by Mufuka works on Thursday and Friday evenings at the Rec Center.


Under the direction of instructor Elsie Mufuka, students are encouraged to develop basic dance techniques and also learn to fuse Modern, African and Ballet movements. This amazing combination of traditional movements combined with contemporary dance is entitled AfroRusse and is the creative brainchild of Elsie. Her vision is provide dance classes and dance company performances which will educate  the Charlotte community about human life stories on all levels from youth to adult.
