What’s grabbing even more attention is that Tatum was learning the Tshwala Bam through one of the African Dance Dictionary’s popular street formats, showcasing Isaac’s innovative approach to making African dance accessible and engaging for all.
Ghanaian Choreographer Isaac M.I.K teaches Channing Tatum Afro Dance Moves in African Dance Dictionary’s popular Street Format
The African Dance Dictionary, founded by Isaac, has become the world’s largest online Afro dance learning platform, offering a variety of formats, from traditional styles to more contemporary street versions. The platform breaks down these dance styles for all levels of learners, providing not just steps but a cultural understanding behind each movement. This street format, as seen in the viral video, allows dancers to engage with Afro dance in a more urban, spontaneous context, connecting deeply with younger, global audiences.
The video of Channing Tatum, who is widely known for his dance roles in films like Step Up, is a testament to how Afro dance is becoming a global phenomenon, thanks to Isaac’s efforts.
