Maia von Lekow

Danz on Bass!

Vocalists: Neema, Kanji, Kaz and Myself with a great array of musicians for Tandawazi Festival 2011 last Saturday.

THE PROCEEDS

The proceeds from Tandawazi go towards Project Baraza. This is
an empowerment initiative whose objective is to build / refurbish
community youth centres in under privileged communities. The idea is
to create a commercially run entity that’s run by the community, for the
community.

IMPORTANT NOTE!

Tandawazi is not a charity. Through the arts we provide the youth with
skills that will better their economic situation and that of their families
as they grow within their preferred skill set. Our current work will breed
that next crop of capoeira instuctors & assistants who will be teaching
classes across Kenya. We are working on nurturing a confident worldly
individual.
Tandawazi is an empowerment initiative.
