MATC Mequon campus hosted a Valentine Day performance by Ina Onilu Drum and Dance Ensemble. Ina Onilu is a dance ensemble in Milwaukee teaching young people of all races the history of African dance and drumming. This was a very energetic performance put on by the members of Ina Onilu; drummers Ryan Washington, Lenny Dawson and Craig Burnett performed as if before royalty. The dancers, Terrie Jordan, Chyla Nation and Daniel Goodwin, were the best in their performance. Students were able to try some dance steps, and they did a great job learning some simple moves to the drum beat.
