      Enjoy a moving performance of a praise dance by Jai Wright.

      By News Desk

      Praise dance is a liturgical hallmark of many African American Christian churches, going back to the 1970s, but it has deep historical roots in African music and culture. Dancers use movement and gesture to express spiritual joy and devotion to God. It’s the kind of performance that will make your heart soar!
