OUR WHY…WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO!
At our core is EDUCATING everyone so that we can BUILD BRIDGES with our work. In the past, we have found that the simplest form of communication is DANCE AND MUSIC. This transports you to a place where you have NO WORRIES. Just with a glimpse of an eye or eye contact we are able to transcend to a different level. It’s not just the music, its just not the dance, it’s the ambience, the environment that is created by the MCAD INstructor – to just BE!
Where you don’t have to question or think about what needs to be done. With a LASER FOCUS you areengrossed on the movements and grooving to the music.

What is your favourite type of food?
I love the flavourful African Food. But my favourite is Sadza nemaguru (ZImbabwean Dish) and Njera from Ethiopia.
What books are you reading right now?
I usually have 5 to 7 books on the go, oh and I love to reread. Right now reading:
-The Alchemist
-As a Man Thinketh (James Allen)
-Read this for Inspiration (Ashly Perez)
-Long Walk to Freedom (Nelson Mandela)
-Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway (Susan Jeffries)
-To Sell is Human (Daniel Pink)
-Abundance Now (Lisa Nichols)
-Things I Overheard while talking to Myself (Alan Alda)
How do you keep your energy high all the time?
Simple. I LOVE what I do, and I’m PASSIONATE about spreading cultural awareness through the arts.
In your Entrepreneurial Journey, what has been your biggest AHA moment?
I think there have been many but I will just point the one that changed the business tradjectory. I realized that until I IMPROVED myself , in terms of gaining knoweldge, business relationships etc. the business would not improve. I am always at work on myself and always want to operate at my highest optimum level.
What has been your biggest accomplishment so far?
At the beginning of my Entrepreneurial journey, I didn’t have much time to spend with family. I was always working long hours. But in the past 7 years, my biggest accomplishment has been regularly scheduling time with my family, and learning to prioritize myself over work. It’s not perfect but it’s much better than it used to be

MCAD Inc is partnering with Chaks Publishing bringing the Mapfiwa Book Series. This UNIQUE series is designed to educate, inform a different side of Africa. It’s not just the beauty of Africa, but also rooted in the stories is the traditions and layers of modern Africa versus Traditional Africa.
The beautiful art work done by Diane Lucas, is taken from photos of ACTUALn footage of the author at her Aunt’s wedding (age 3) and her rural village Gutu. It is storytelling at it’s best!
