Sidi Goma gave two master classes while in Saint Paul. The first was for dance students of the Saint Paul Conservatory for the Performing Arts. This class challenged the students, introducing them to a new form of global dance. The second master class was open to community dancers. All participants learned from the unique style of performance and benefited from the technique and positive energy of Sidi Goma.
