| dbo:abstract | L'expressió dansa africana fa referència principalment a la dansa en la part d'Àfrica al sud del Sàhara, i a nombrosos tipus de danses africanes producte de les moltes diferències culturals en els estils musicals i de moviment. Aquestes danses estan molt relacionades amb les tradicions musicals al sud de Sàhara i amb el sentit del ritme bantu. La dansa africana utilitza el concepte de poliritme i l'articulació total del cos. Les danses permeten interpretar patrons i valors socials, i ajuden les persones a treballar, madurar i criticar membres de la comunitat alhora que contribueixen a la celebració de festivals i funerals, competicions, recitat d'història, proverbis i poesia; i a acostar-se als déus. En general, les danses africanes promouen la participació, i fan partícips els espectadors en la mateixa expressió artística. Tret d'algunes danses espirituals religioses o d'iniciació, tradicionalment no hi ha barreres entre els ballarins i el públic, i sovint les danses rituals tenen moments en què el públic hi participa.

(en) Unter Afrikanischer Tanz werden im Allgemeinen Tänze unterschiedlichster Art in Subsahara-Afrika verstanden. Die Tänze werden meistens von Trommeln begleitet. Beide gehören so eng zusammen, dass sie voneinander gar nicht zu trennen sind. Afrika ist ein großer Kontinent mit 53 Ländern. Obwohl die Tänze einige Ähnlichkeiten haben, unterscheiden sie sich durch Traditionen und Wanderungen doch sehr vom arabischen Nordafrika. In Afrika gehören Musik, Tanz und Gesang untrennbar zusammen und sind tief verwurzelt im Alltagsbewusstsein der Menschen. (de) La expresión danza africana hace referencia principalmente a la danza en la porción de África al sur del Sahara, y a numerosos tipos de danzas africanas producto de las numerosas diferencias culturales en los estilos musicales y de movimiento. Estas danzas están muy relacionadas con las tradiciones musicales al sur de Sahara y el sentido del ritmo bantú. La danza africana utiliza el concepto de poliritmo y la articulación total del cuerpo.Las danzas permiten interpretar patrones sociales y valores y ayudan a las personas a trabajar, madurar, rezar y criticar a miembros de la comunidad a la vez que contribuyen en la celebración de festivales y funerales, competencias, recitado de la historia, proverbios y poesía; y a acercarse a los dioses. En general las danzas africanas promueven la participación, tomando parte los espectadores en la misma expresión artística. Con la excepción de algunas danzas espirituales religiosas o de iniciación, tradicionalmente no existen barreras entre los bailarines y el público. Incluso las danzas rituales a menudo poseen segmentos en los que el público participa. (es) La danse africaine désigne les danses dansées en Afrique et faisant partie de la culture africaine. Cette appellation est issue de la rencontre des danses d’Afrique avec le monde occidental. Elle regroupe en son sein toutes les danses traditionnelles ainsi que les danses à racines africaines issues de cette rencontre. (fr) Con l'espressione danza africana si fa riferimento ad un insieme molto eterogeneo e vasto di fenomeni coreutici ed espressivi che hanno come comune denominatore la realtà territoriale identificata come Africa sub-sahariana e la stretta relazione con la musica, com'è ben testimoniato dall'assenza, in molte lingue locali, di termini differenziati per indicare le due pratiche culturali. Queste danze costituiscono spesso nelle società di tipo tradizionale un sistema di riferimenti simbolici condiviso dai membri della comunità che permette loro di comunicare ed elaborare culturalmente i principali eventi della vita individuale e sociale: in molti casi, non esiste una distinzione netta tra le categorie che generalmente consideriamo come teatro, danza e musica ma al contrario, è presente una concezione piuttosto fluida che opera concretamente fondendo questi tre aspetti in un'unica performance. Inoltre, la rilevanza sociale di questi fenomeni fa sì che essi si iscrivano in una dimensione più ampia che spazia dalla tradizione orale alle pratiche religiose: eventi sostanziali della vita come nascite, matrimoni, funerali ed eventi eccezionali collegati alle differenti realtà culturali africane sono spesso celebrati attraverso la danza.
