Harambee to teach dance at Eagle Heights Friday

YOUNGSTOWN — Serena Reed and Neighai Lively jumped at the opportunity to dance with the Harambee Youth Organization when they learned the troupe would be conducting a workshop at their school, Eagle Heights Academy.

“I like to dance, so I decided to try it out,” said Serena, an eighth grader.

“I saw them perform last year,” added Neighai, adding that watching the group perform on stage drew her interest and she was anxious to get a chance to dance with them during a workshop Thursday.

“I loved it,” Serena said at the end of the session.

“It’s pretty easy,” Neighai said.

Harambee was to perform at the school Friday and those pupils in grades five through eight who participated in the workshop were invited to perform on stage.
