Amaraaba!  Welcome to Tiyumba Drum and Dance!

Tiyumba (tee-yoom-bah) means "let's love them", and is at the heart of the mission of Tiyumba Drum and Dance.  With the spirit of traditional African culture, Tiyumba reaches out and includes All in a joyful expression of life and community. As is taught by Ghanaian elders, "togetherness brings health and happiness".
