HOW IT ALL BEGAN
Dawou Tarraxo
Since 2019, Dawou has become an important member of the VVK taxi dancer team ‘Vivez Votre Kizomba’, also founded by Gwany. There, he is responsible for the organization of the team. Dawou established a strong base. He has intensified and developed his skills.
Gwany is reshaping his knowledge in the basics of Kizomba, especially in Tarraxa and Tarraxo. Then, an exciting period of work and training with Gwany & Liliana de Lima begins.
Dawou accompanies them in their travels around the world. He practices until he becomes levitated and thus obtains the skills for teaching others one day. From festival to festival, from workshop to private classes, he writes with them the history of Tarraxo, this dance that vibrates from the depths of the earth.
Each country has its culture, each festival reveals each dancer, and each situation requires different requirements and a unique approach. Dawou has thus become an integral part of the Tarraxo Movement.
He participates in diffusing and transmitting it and unites in a unique way around this connection of energy, both dense and intense. As it is the dance that connects and allows us to express what we feel – beyond words.
Since October 2020, Dawou is a certified Teacher for Tarraxo.
