Indaga Dance

The Indaga dance group brings together Burundian women in Toronto to share their cultural heritage. The word ‘Indaga’ means ‘Model’ in the Kirundi language. The group is part of CONNECT BURUNDI, a collective of different members of the Burundian diaspora that aims to integrate Burundian culture with Toronto’s Canadian diversity through art and culture. The Indaga dancers practice traditional dances to perform at cultural and corporate events in order to showcase their heritage. In order to fully contribute to their civic involvement and foster understanding of the richness of Canadian society, the Indaga dancers seek to serve as a model for sharing the cultural pride of an entire people with young and old.
