Facial expression is key, says young dancer Winnie Zainabu Amaso, 12, giving a demonstration. “You have to put your legs straight, you have to put your body straight. But most importantly, you have to put a smile on your face.”
Amaso lives more than 4,000 miles from Ireland, in Namuwongo, the poorest slum in Uganda’s capital, Kampala. She and her classmates have been introduced to Irish dancing via online lessons and she loves it.
