Impilo Mapantsula

Impilo Mapantsula is a collective structure and a consciousness movement. We want to develop a solid network for AmaPantsula in South Africa, increase the exposure of the dance, improve the local working conditions, strengthen international connections, and by so doing help the dancers and companies to develop and professionalize their art. Our aim is to unite all the people who want to share and promote IsiPantsula dance and culture.

Impilo Mapantsula was founded in 2012 by Vusi Mdoyi (dancer/choreographer, co-director of Via Katlehong), Sello Modiga (dancer/choreographer, director of Real Actions Pantsula), Joshua Mokoena (dancer/choreographer, director of Ezomdabu Young Entertainers) and Sicelo Xaba (dancer/choreographer, director of Red For Danger Pantsulas) and Daniela Goeller (postdoctoral research-fellow at VIAD, University of Johannesburg).
