JOSEPH MATOVU: AFRICAN DANCE TEACHER
Joseph was born in a traditional Ugandan family. Tribal and Christian music has always been a part of my family, owing to the absence of toys and TVs during my childhood, He started drumming at a very young age. His childhood evening camp fires included drumming, singing, dancing and story telling. The two tiny drums went around our small group of 10-20 children, with the guidance of professional drummers, dancers and storytellers who usually turned up at these gathering. I picked up professional tactics and the passion for music and African Drumming. In school he furthered his music and passion and was chosen to be the “Choir Master”. They held different school competitions both locally and nationally, They won Triumphantly. He has performed at various cultural events and ceremonies E.g. Birthdays, Engagement Parties, Naming Ceremonies, Weddings, Corporate functions, Festivals, Churches schools and Universitie .He now resides in Ipswich Australia teaching African Drumming, singing, instruments ,Dance and Culture
