United Nations Association of Australia – World Environment Awards Night, Grand Hyatt, Melbourne.
"Mzuri was wonderful, everyone loved the performance. I have only had positive feedback about the night. Thanks once again, for a terrific performance". -

For the second year in a row the Mzuri Dance Company ensemble have been the feature performers at Preston Girls Secondary College's (PGSC) Harmony Day. Harmony Day celebrates the multi-cultural heritage of the more than 30 countries represented by our students.

On both occasions the Company delivered magnificently engaging and dynamic performances that had a wide appeal to our audience. Director Suzi Mzuri is very skilled at engaging the students in movement, dance, chant, ritual and song. The shows are fast moving, highly interactive, exciting, cross-age and cross-cultural (last year we had a Primary School audience to supplement our Secondary Schools students). The students on both occasions took very little time to rise and actively take part in the show.

Additionally, we have many recently arrived students from politically unstable zones in Africa, including southern Sudan, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Somalia, Egypt and Zimbabwe. The Pan-African soul of Mzuri's music and dance helps to physically and emotionally bind these girls culturally to their new political and social environment. They enthusiastically and proudly take part in these events with a special joy as they share dance and music with the whole school community

I wholeheartedly recommend the Mzuri Dance Company for any festive or celebratory occasion.

Suzanne and her colleague Jessy took on a very active role, leading our team of eighty people through a range of energizing team building exercises, drumming instruction and the development of small group presentations. Both instructors had done significant work to build our company themes and values into their activities, ensuring the event was relevant, appropriate and appealing to our employees.

I found Suzanne to be flexible in her approach and willing to adapt her standard presentation style to fit our particular needs. Participating employees responded well to her approach and readily participated in the drumming activities.

I would be happy to recommend the Mzuri Dance Company.- Con Loukos. Retails Contracts Mangaer, TXU. 2nd June 2005

HI SUZI, It was FANTASTIC on Saturday and the feedback from everyone has been really really positive..

“....I participated in the recent drumming/dancing sessions (with my daughter) at Southbank. We absolutely loved it! The vibes were great and the whole active participation was commendable.

Any word on one-off workshops would be appreciated...we'll keep an eye out for you guys at future events around Melbourne. Cheza!!! Thanks, Jennie” Feb 2007

“I would like to say a big thank you to you and the rest of the MZURI band for a great show, I attended the last two shows at Queens bridge and took part in both drumming workshops and I had a ball, I will be watching to see where you are performing so I might get to see you all again. Could you please tell me if you have drumming lessons and when they are held. all the very best to you all. from, Mario Borg.” Feb 2007

“Hi Suzanne and Mpaphi, Thank you both so much for providing such a wonderful workshop for our children (& staff) - they all had an absolute ball & we have some great pics to prove it!  Cheers & again many thanks.” Mandy Muschamp Coordinator, Vacation Care. City of Port Phillip Thursday, April 05, 2007

“Thankyou, for great workshops, Suzanne. I wish I could have attended the hiphop as well, I haven't forgotten the harvesting dance you taught us at Utassy Ballet several years ago, Suzanne, and I often use your "Ooni pe" song as a lung-warmer with my choirs and dancers in teaching. I suspect my dancing is still a bit stiff and classical, but I did have a wonderful time -- THANKYOU!
Monica and Mary say that they loved the hiphop - fun, energetic and leaving you wanting to do more, great dance moves which transfer into other spheres, not too difficult, great exercise, and Monica wants to come along next year with me!
I am interested in classes next year
All the best, and thanks from all of us in Warrandyte. Cheers,” -  Kass Harding.

Awesome! Always leave feeling great. The rotation routine was really good and I think worked well. Thanks Suzie. Anna.

Found my rhythm with Hip Hop Suzie. Thanks for the classes. Your passion for dance really shows. Themes.
It is a very good experience because Suzie is a very good dancer. She’s fun and friendly which really motivates me to come to class and also her effort of remembering our names. Thank you so much, Wendy – Elizabeth Street Melbourne
