Jorge Luis Morejon started dancing West African with Nia Mani Tua at Florida International University. Later he became part of the Delou Africa Dance Ensemble under the artistic leadership and choreographic direction of Njeri Plato-Dioubate. Through his work with Njeri, Jorge Luis was motivated and inspired by African dance and culture, specifically the dance styles and techniques of Senegal and Gambia. His first West-African dance performance took place at Florida International University, VH-100, with the Dance ensemble directed and choreographed by Nia Mani Tua. Then, he danced with Delou Africa Dance Ensemble at the Children's Alley, Miami International Book Fair. No pictures are available of this event in Jorge Luis Morejon's private archive.
