Nafsi Afrika Acrobats (youth social activism project in Kenya)

Nafsi Afrika Acrobats is a Kenyan group that is proud to be creating solutions to some of the enormous socio-economic problems facing people in Kenya through the use of acrobatics, dance, and theatrical performances. "Nafsi" is the Swahili word for "soul". The group name Nafsi Afrika implies that the group is the soul of Africa and that they also have Africa deep within their souls.

The vision of Nafsi Afrika Acrobats is to empower youth by doing the following:

• Embracing their talents
• Appreciating and being proud of our cultural heritage
• Helping them to become role models who are instrumental in the positive development of their community

The video above shows a sample of some of the group's acts.
